[QUOTE="oexing, post: 177982, member: 1493"] You are completely right, I should ride the things a bit more. But it is a case of motivation when no particular event may lure me out of the workshop. My lady does not help much, approaching 70 as well, next year. Lots of meetings were canceled in the past, partly by covid craze or by administrational hardships and greed about dues for the town when having a meeting there. Best strategy is having "unofficial" meetings so no police or whatever get into the event for silly requirements turning anything into nightmares. Next matter is the percentage of total idiots on public roads, mostly car drivers that do not drive their cars. Instead being busy on the phone or other electronic equipment inside. So even our E-type sits in her garage for many years as well, just for the MOT moved a bit. France was always great for holidays with the Jag, not much traffic in lovely country roads. But in recent times we have turned a bit uneasy about new speed limits and more so about less positive attitudes of most people in Europe and elswhere. But maybe it is just old age that makes me think so , remembering times that were quite different not very long ago. Vic [/QUOTE]
