Nice drive over to a guitar shop in Stevenage to buy some picks. Found my next guitar while I was there so a great trip all in all . Hi I'm also a keen guitar player (i can't claim guitarist) and I ride a bike quite a bit, a Bianchi Infinito disc. As a retirement present I found and bought Lowdon F series this year and am once again building back my abilities and I also joined a 1000 mile Skeddaddle cycling trip from Pisa to the tip of the heel of Italy, Santa Maria de Leuca. Happy trails Kevin I also have a Tokai ES130 - a 335 copy Kevin Cycling, music, and the Morgan. This is why I always have a smile on my face. And my name is Kevin as well. How about that! I have another hobby, photography and still have an operational darkroom - black and white, you too? Kevin

I had a bitsa Tele at one stage that my brother christened the Kevcaster, I kept the name but not the guitar. I quit playing in a covers band about 8 years ago and have the Tokai and a Korean set neck, solid body with P90 pickups from those days, I don’t play either of them much but I’m enjoying rekindling my acoustic playing on the Lowden.
I have noticed that Morgan owners seem to be music lovers and in the past noticed that guitar players are often bike riders and also interested in photography so I feel right at home on this forum. What I am not is good at anything mechanical to do with cars and so this forum is a wonderful discovery and already proving immensely informative after just a few months. I can fix mechanical cameras and I’m hoping that skill will translate into something useful. Electrics of course is a form of magic known only to the inner circle - not me.

Nice drive to just North of Thetford with Hawki to the FolkMog AGM.
We got a bit wet as I went through a deep puddle.

I also discovered the front indicator to be somewhat waterlogged but still operational - I cleaned this out, scraped the worst of the rust and it is back functional and dry. While the indicator is fully functional I plan to replace this and have ordered a new part.
If I remember correctly, I believe that if the wet indicator fault occurs and the hazard warning lights are switched on then the PCB under the dashboard is then toast. This component is expensive if available. It is also rarer than golden poo emerging from under my horse’s tail.
