Horn and a Minor Oops Moment...

The day before the Brisbane Billycart Championships... Damian thought he'd duck up to the shed to check how much fuel was in Retro Rock-It...


Turning the key, he noticed something a bit disturbing... there was nothing at all... the battery was completely flat!!  Looking around, he saw that he had accidentally left the amp on (that powers the external speakers), draining the battery...

Nothing that a quick charge up from the mighty Dmax couldn't fix...


Followed by charging with Damian's multi-stage charger!!  By the morning, it should be right as rain!!


Damian wasn't thrilled with having the claxton horn hooked up to the steering wheel horn button, so he bought another horn...


Now there are two... the claxton and a traditional beep beep horn!!  Woot!!


Next job was to make 100 numbered balls ready for the raffle draw on Sunday…


Hand numbering completed...


This looks like a good bag to store them in...


And there they are, safe and secure until the raffle is drawn!


Lastly, time to load up the Berg Balanz Bike... sadly it doesn't fit in Retro Rock-It, so the lovely Tricia will be driving it down in her car...


Remember to come down to the Brisbane Billycart Championships on Sunday at the Carindale Recreation Reserve, Cadogan Street Carindale!!  Not only will you hear Damian's dulcet tones as he performs MC duties, but you can come and pick up an extra ticket in the raffle before they run out!!

See you all there!!
