RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - Duncan Grimmond - 14-09-2019 Very impressive, well done that man(and crew)! RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - Peter Clayton - 14-09-2019 OK, So when does the book come out? CAN'T WAIT . Well done, and on behalf of all Seven owners, thanks to all along your route who gave assistance to foreigners in trouble. RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - Tony Betts - 14-09-2019 Amazing, And all in time for the rugby. As this was Chris's aim from the start. Will enjoy catching up with him when he returns. And yes put me down for a copy of the book, even though I've never read one. Tony. RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - "Slack Alice" Simon - 15-09-2019 Japanese TV does a great piece on Chris' arrival in Japan. RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - Hugh Barnes - 15-09-2019 Quite extraordinary! RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - Chris KC - 15-09-2019 I can't help wondering whether Chris is dribbling 20W50 through all those pristine Japanese side streets - would be less well received in Japan than in Russia I reckon! RE: Chris Blakey - Celebrate the Seven Trans Siberian journey - "Slack Alice" Simon - 15-09-2019 Probably not - silicon gaskets and an engine rebuild from an Austin guru helped. If you go back to the start of the trip he was complaining about an oil leak that was traced to the petrol pump. It wasn't that bad a leak (I would have lived with it) but he didn't like it, and somehow fixed it. Haven't heard anything since about oil. There will be the odd drip I don't doubt.

Or is he turning around and motoring back? |
