[BNE] Mid Week Mountain Run


Recommended Posts

Well lucky we did that run last night and not next week Mick. That run was just enough to push my brake pads right to the end of their life. I was getting some epic squealing on the last part of my drive home last night. My brake pads look a little rooted. I'm stuck at home now for the next couple of hours until someone gets back with a car so I can get myself some new pads.

I think they were a little more than sad. They were extremely cozy with the brake wear indicator. So much for Toyota picking up on its wear when I had it serviced 2000km ago. They could have mentioned they were going low.

Painting it sure is tempting, but really cant be bothered.
