Guess who is sat outside waiting to be recovered because their falco is refusing to start...
Estimated recovery time? 21.09 and I'm less than a mile away from home...

Less than a mile and posted at 19.21 seems like you could push it and be home well before well the recovery team are scheduled to arrive. That'll save you a trip to the gym. Bonus!

I went to turn it over and it started doing the classicas clocks reset thing, indicating low on juice. Think it might be time for a new battery now, just wish it had done it before I spent 300 quid on it, wouldn't have bought new levers then..
Just waiting for a man with some electricity to give me a jump start.

I have too much pride. If it was midnight I might be up for it! But not now...

I can also do batteries (Yuasa, not cheapy poo). Again, I fear postage may be a sale-killer though.
