    Had a lovely run out yesterday. After a few hours, i popped into Whiteways cafe for a much needed cold drink. Had a nice chat with a chap on a Storm that turns out lives less that lives 10 minutes away in the same village. Didn't ask if you were on here but Hello if you are. Anyway, some nice bikes parked up there. To prove i was there and it happened i took some snapshots.

    Around here petrol is £126.9 per ltr. Haven't stopped at a motorway petrol station for years Just can't afford to. Rather treck a few miles off the Motorway to save a bit when needing a tankful.

    When I'm touring or out on a ride I never look at the price, like you I just fill up. But at home before a ride I do use my local Morrisons as they tend to be one of the cheapest in the local area.....

    Had a run down to the Raven cafe via Nantwich to Whitchurch for breakfast. Returned up the A49 to J&S at Delamere before heading for home. Nice little sprint before the rain....

    Ride out to the Waterfront cafe on the Thames in Benson this morning with a few mates



    Left at 8am and was already very warm, almost Spanish like!
    Had brunch and headed back at 10am, by then all the cyclist were out taking up the roads and no cars able to get past. Took twice as long to get home as it did to get there.

    Even the small tucked away, usually slightly more expensive but a very reasonable £1.32~ ltr. failed to compare against this rip off.
    I called in for a drink of pop but at nearly £16 gallon they can keep that an all :mad:

    Best bit was I didn't need any fuel but now further north I'm getting a bit desperate. Might have to resort to my spare tank ;)

    What do you reckon was the cause of the seal popping out capt? Wear and tear after 120,000km or could the crankcase breather have caused a bit of pressure build up?
