Bugger. I wanted to play in the shed today, but naturally, it's raining here as well. This is actually a rare event, in spite of the recent floods.
Sounds like a good ratio with your axle, as if I'm an expert, but I really like the long drawbar for storage if I ever need it, and easy reversing.

Oh yeh Regis, cannot forget to allow for beer, better beef up the springs a bit.
Yup I am trying to aim for about 15%
