    The Maple festival isn't what it was.
    Thought it was because our kids have grown but even with the granddaughter it's not the same.
    Maybe it's me? We are only a few blocks away so we see a lot of traffic/people.
    We bring the granddaughter and usually get a bite to eat. Although the wife's cooking is way better.
    Think I'll clean and coat my frame this weekend maybe try my new buffer if I have time.

    How did gobblins frame look? And yours also?
    Are you using fluid film as well.
    The lps3 I'm using works well enough I think, but after the winter I See rust spots that need attention.
    I do use the auto car wash with brushs and under body wash which tends to knock off the scabs from Toyota putting crc over rust spots.

    Hey everyone.
    So I blew a brake cylinder on my front left coming home tonight.
    Happened in colchester lol but I made it home to stalbans.
    It was a fun trip to say the least. Gotta love the manual tranny.
    I would had done the power stop calipers but can't get them in time now.
    Opinions?
    Advance has wearever new and remans.
    I'm thinking I'm going with the remans because I believe the remans are better in my opinion..
    I'm thinking they get more attention when being rebuilt?
    Only 20$ cheaper so not a huge savings.
