"I think we only had to stop and wait two or three times for the AWs to catch up . Zip ties stronger these days I guess." Ahem... I seem to recall one of said AW11's waiting with the SW20's at the front of the pack. ;)
Actually I am really chuffed with the old girl, she's done well over 1500 km in one week, 700 on a very hot day (up north), and didn't miss a beat. Then again I don't do my maintenance with zip-ties... that must be where I am going wrong. :D
"My apologies for the delay due to roadside repairs, I need to fire my mechanic for his shoddy work."
Just put him on starvation wages for a week, that'll learn him!
