Glad that you liked the pic Richard, K and Graham, and thanks for letting me know that you did. Perhaps you might like a little more detail... ? I often try to time my runs either around dawn, or when I expect most local folk/tourists/cyclists, might be enjoying their evening meal, which seems to greatly reduce the amount of traffic on the roads. The particular location of that pic is on a local road which is ever popular for both m/cyclists and others who like a bit of a challenge, and sadly it has claimed quite a number of lives over the years. Currently the road surface is horrendous in places, more so in the Mog with a mix of pot holes and very rough repairs, all of which leads me to suspect that other than local authority budget cuts, perhaps the the road surface has been allowed to deteriorate in order to reduce the average speed of traffic to some degree.

On moving on to a much smoother road I thought I picked up on a bit of a rattle, which was not any of the usual shakes rattle or roll, though in truth there is never much in the way of roll. I pulled into the public car park at Aberfoyle to investigate and was approached by a young couple with French accents, while shaking the Mog in search of my new rattle, as ever there were the usual questions asked and much interest shown, and fortunately the new rattle was found to be one of the spotlights had slackened a tad and turned to make occasional contact with the bumper... My new found friends were amazed at the selection of tools to be found in the tool box under the bonnet, and just how quick and simple it was to resolve the Morgan`s new rattle.... As ever I invited them to sit behind the wheel for each of them to have their photograph taken, which is ever greatly appreciated any time I have done so over the years, after which I crept out of Aberfoyle at the normal 20mph limit, then roared over the hills and glens in places, all of which made for another great drive in the old Mog....(-:
