Still hot down here in deepest Rekkersland but the worst of the heatwave seems to be over, with storms forecast tonight and tomorrow. Having (fingers crossed) managed to stem the oil leaks from the valve chest and the oil filler cap I decided to make the most of the slightly cooler (32°) weather and stick a few more miles on the rebuilt engine. Still taking things "steady" but all seems good. Pulling well uphill even in top gear. 260 miles completed. I want to get at least 1000 miles of running in before I tackle my next expedition...
