It sounds like you're making progress there John. Hopefully the EV will give you a better range - it's easy to miss a binding brake - my DAF which was creeping around at 30 - intermittently - had one. If I'd've noticed that I'd've fixed it before it went down to this stupid garage :(

And all that space in your garage - you could almost get another Suzuki in there now ;)

Now that I'm looking for it, the binding is (was) obvious. Oh well, things should be improved now. And no, I don't need any more Suzukis in the garage!

Did I ever tell you about our highly-technical Work Items project-management technology ? I have found it to be a helpful way to get un-stuck with a project in the past.

If we meet up for a Pisanomatic thing, I'll tell you all about it, in case it helps.

How's the City-el doing with the fixed brake ?

I think the City-El will be much improved now that it rolls freely, without slowing down as it used to. I was having to use battery power just to maintain a constant speed, before. I haven't done a proper range test yet (partly due to arrival of the Cappuccino), nor have I improved the instruments.
