    Must be some stretch in this new cable - got it home and took off the tie down straps - brake on and it rolled to the back of the trailer - adjusted the wing nut - took it up the farm yesterday - stopped on a hill to get off and do a job - brake on and it just wanted to roll - had to park it sideways on the slope and adjust the wing nut again - will have to watch it for a while until it settles down
    Had the spray tank and rear tray off for a service and the cable job - so thought I would give it a spring clean yesterday - when you get the mud off Dundee’s bike Shootm - it should look like this - a bit of CRC is a useful tool
    Give it a wash Dundee - you might double your money
