Title: RELOCATION CONFIRMED Oxford Cutteslowe Park 14/10/12
Post by: grain.ben on 03 October 2012, 20:29:30
Sorry about this guys, this meet has now been relocated to Cutteslowe Park, Oxford OX2 8ES, due to an event at Kassam beyond my control

Ive never been here, some of you have, and im sure this is the postcode                   ^   

Hope all the info is correct, and im sure someone said about it being pay & display.

TB, can you make the calendar change names pretty please with sugar on top  ;)

Lets try to make a good turnout guys  :y

According to the calendar this clashes with the Battle of Hastings, so not sure if we'll get a decent turnout.  :-\

Anyways, back to the meet, Ive got two item here that im giving away free to good homes and first refusal is on those who turn up on Sunday  :y

I have a manual rear view mirror i no longer need, perfect condition - FREE

CCR 2006 i bought about a year ago by mistake, the facial is a little scratched (cc metallic), i DO NOT have a clue if the unit is working or not, so this is going for FREE as spares or repairs.

Will bring them both with me on Sunday.

Just for info all:

Car Parking
There are two car parks. One is at the north end of the Park on Harbord Road. The other is at the south end of the Park, off the A40 (heading towards Headington).
Car Park charges are: 50p up to 1 hour, £1 1-3 hours, £2 2-5 hours. It doesn't sound like these apply to the A40 entrance - can anyone confirm that ?  ???

Apparently the minaiture railway will be open too from 13:30  ::)

That is the carpark we've used before.

I won't bring an event shelter, as the weather looks dry and bright, even if it will struggle to hit double figures.

Sorry i couldn't stay for long - just got back from party a few samosas and onion bhajis heavier ;D

Josh I liked your Jag alot :y

Thanks to all for looking over my car. I did the paperclip test just now and and it kept repeating between 12 and 31, which i believe shows no stored codes? - TB cleared codes at the meet which were crank sensor and knock sensor - which wasn't plugged in :-[ There was an intermittant clattery/whining noise from exhaust rear at the meet but i don't know what it was.

She was still a bit stuttery on idle/initial acceleration on the way back to Maidenhead, but there wasn't much hanging about as i gunned it back ::)

Sorry I had to leave early, I needed to get home before I popped painkillers, as they make me sleep  :-[

As it happened, when I got back, I didn't feel too bad, so carried on rebuilding the bike :)

I did my paper clip test with engine not running....the code 12 is telling you its doing a diagnostic, and code 31 is telling you the engine is not running :y
