Had to change the gaskets in two of many cylinders on the backhoe digger, since they where totally worn out causing it to leak huge amounts of oil.
Tried to loosen the nut at home, but instead of loosen it I would have ripped the vise of the table. So I had to go to Westreng Maskinforretning, they have the proper tooling, including a very long pipe which I needed to get enough momentum to loosen the nut.
I did hitch a ride with Torgrim last Wednesday home from work, this is the view we had when passing by Råmyra
My old pair of running shoes, the Mizuno Wave Hayate 2. According to this review http://runnerclick.com/mizuno-wave-hayate-2-review/ it has oustanding traction, but I disagree. A bit moist conditions and I do not trust the shoes at all, the conditions needs to be all dry and not a single rock or tree root for me to trust them. And the shoe sole has started to loosen from the shoe on one of them after what I consider pretty lightweight usage. So, no more Mizuno for me.
So yesterday I passed by the Sport1 outlet next to Oslo City and found two new pair of shoes which I do expect will perform way better. The Inov8 Artic Claw 300 – which is actually a winter running shoe with 16 spikes, but I will use them as terrain shoes in summer time as well. I expect them to have very good grip at all times, even in very wet conditions on rocks and tree roots. The other one, Asics Fuji Runnegade 2, does not have spikes but I also expect the grip to be way better than the Mizunos. Both shoes 700,- pr. pair, so a very good price as well.
So now I cannot complain about the shoes when in Sweden in 30 days – all ready for Icebug Challenge.
No side windows, plastic fantastic, but not using waterproofed tape – risky
Seems like the car would be washed pretty well both on the outside and the inside
And off course a disclaimer: I was passing by on the bus, not able to help 🙂
