Kevin Stewart picked up brand new transit van - sponsored by Spie Matthew Hall- (from Glasgow) which will act as support vehicle for Tuc Tuc. This evening Kevin and the van rendezvused with Steve and the Tuc Tuc in Sawley.

GPS Tracker is now live

Thanks to fleetsmart!


Running in....

The preparation continues. So far several of the lights have failed, and last night the exhaust supports broke off, leaving the exhaust vibrating like a tuning fork! Fortunately the Tuc Tuc is in the workshop is being beefed up ready for the 1st October.

However, most of these issues are minor and will soon be resolved. So far I am 200 miles into the 1000 mile running in period. Only then can I reach the Tuc Tuc equivalent of Mach 1, that being 35 mph!

More news as it happens
