On or around Sat, 11 Oct 2003 18:48:15 +0100, Tom Woods enlightened us thusly:
boiled the 110 today, after trundling up a steep bit of UCR at low speed. Mind, I'd left the cap purposely loose so as not to pressurise the system, in hopes that this would make the rad leak less; of course, this would make it prone to boil sooner. Fortunately, there was a large puddle nearby, so I topped it up and continued, this time with the cap done up.
nice lane, too. dunno if it's legal, but the off-road dirt-bike crowd seem to use it a lot, which don't prove anything. And *we* kept to the track for all except one rather deep looking puddle, where there was a very clear diversion around it. went through all the others, despite evidence that others hadn't been doing so.
I guess if it'd been raining a lot the water would be deeper, however, if it'd been raining a lot some of the "bypasses" would be decidedly iffy anyway. At least the track has a hard surface.
