Ashalak Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 Missed my train into work this morning, bloody handbrake cable had frozen up like it did last Winter.. To rub salt into the wound I've got two new ones in my wardrobe at home, I've just not had time to fit them! . Full kettle of water and crawling round on my hands and knee's with a heat gun had them freed off mind so it could of been a whole lot worse.Nobody to blame but myself really, just fancied a rant Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Socks Posted November 26, 2010 Share Posted November 26, 2010 unless u live on a hill just leave it in gear mate in winter.. save yourself the hassle! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ashalak Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 unless u live on a hill just leave it in gear mate in winter.. save yourself the hassle!I know mate, I've been doing that every time I've washed it recently as obviously its more likely to freeze.. It just did it of its own accord last night though so looks like I'll have to do it throughout the merry season . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ashalak Posted November 26, 2010 Author Share Posted November 26, 2010 LOL, yep I've done that before but I would feel a bit of a hobo getting my brick out at the train station Quote Link to post Share on other sites
