Out of hibernation, XCP Rust Blocker stops all rust, but is a b#gger to get off. 2 1/2 hours this afternoon.
Has been serviced and everything checked over.
Ready for the first short tour tomorrow, let’s hope it’s a busy season.

Hi my name is John. I have set up, in my wisdom, a trike touring company on Orkney. Where I have lived since 2012.
I was brought up in England and spent a happy childhood in Lincolnshire. From the age of 12 I've ridden motorbikes and apart from a couple of years have always owned at least one.
I've worked at many jobs but spent 34 years as a nurse, including 10 years in the ambulance service, with in the NHS. Taking early retirement due to I'll health. I burnt out mentally and at the same time I developed some heart disease. I'm ok now and I plan to be here for about 30 more years. If only to collect all that pension I paid into.
I've never taken life to seriously and always see the funny side of things.
Since being at school I've had an interest in history, especially WW II which I have been indulging in since coming to Orkney.
Having been brought up in the country I also have a good background knowledge of natural history and all things agricultural. One of my ambitions is to own a tractor but Gill my long suffering wife isn't so keen.
I now live in Deerness with Gill my wife my two daughter live in England and my son lives in Stromness.
I keep bees and have done since the mid 80s, I am an angler and I hope to restart my golfing career this winter. In the past I enjoyed Scouting, rock climbing, mountaineering and skiing none of which I now do.
