I don't know which particular gods to thank, but a combination of obscure, single track, potholed roads on a local blat with the ancient cobbled roads of Laon or just the on/off filthy weather conspired to kick-start my speedo to full working health. I could dig deep and investigate, but with Portmeirion coming up, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. Incidentally, I did have a brake light failure in France which was down to a blown fuse. No obvious cause. 7 ownership eh?
