As the jet stream dumped record breaking amounts of rain on the UK in June and early July we took the opportunity to do some much needed maintenance on our ‘fleet’ of vintage vehicles . Brakes, chains and tyres all checked over on the Pashley trike while the starter motor on the Citroen H van was beginning to show its age. Fortunately the van is fitted with an old fashioned hand crank which I was having to use to get the vehicle started. While this is great for emergencies hand cranking is hard work and the recoil can break your scooping arm so it was a relief to find a new (40 year old) starter motor in Bristol.
