Sad to be packing up, but that means we’re already nearer to next year’s CLM

Re: DDK CLM 2022 diary thread
Today we drove to Paris. The toll road from Le Mans is very fast.
Before going I attempted to adjust the clutch cable so that the clutch engages sooner. I was surprised to find only one but on the end of the cable. I think there should be a second locking nut. I tried to tighten but not easy in a car park with the wheels up on a curve. Very strange looks from our hotel receptionist when I asked where we can buy a M8 nut in Central Paris.
The car ran very nicely. However, it appears they close roads on the first Sunday in each month in Paris which made getting to Ile Saint Louis interesting. Garden in The Little Paris

It would be even more difficult to find an M7 nut that you actually need for your clutch cable……….neilbardsley wrote: ↑Sun Jul 03, 2022 4:26 pm Today we drove to Paris. The toll road from Le Mans is very fast.
