Neat, Tidy and always Handy
Perfect.
My old records have been well cared for but static build up was an issue and dusting with a microfibre cloth seemed to increase the static, hence this purchase.
It's shown itself to be excellent and on first use it was surprising how much crap it picked up from my 2nd print of Tubular Bells (1973), which I thought was clean.
All that vinyl sparkle is back and playing as it should.
It's a neat little package with a built in stylus brush and the thing doesn't look conspicuous sat next to my Amp, always handy for use.

The Original
Jupiter's Travels has been the inspiration for many to do similar world trips. I read this almost 40 years ago, as a bike mad teenager, and loved every page.
I guess you need to be in the same mindset as Ted Simon to fully appreciate it all but there's a new generation of bikers out there who have never had the pleasure. I urge them to read this to fully grasp what the passion entails for many of their peers.
No mobile phones or social media back then. Electronic ignition was in it's infancy. Just a man and his air-cooled bike battling the elements with a long, long walk for help when it goes wrong.
As much as I loved Long Way Round, Boorman and McGregor had top of the range BMW's and support crew and spares, so it kind of missed the mark compared to Ted's adventure.
It's getting a little late in life for me, to follow in his footsteps, but never say never. Maybe I'll live long enough to spend another 40 years dreaming of such an adventure. In the meantime Jupiter's Travels gets you as close to being there as is possible.
Ted died in 2013 at the age of 80 but he lives on in this great book. In my opinion he is up there with our greatest explorers and, without the benefit of company or backing, possibly excels above most of them.

Handy and Effective
It gaps plugs, neat design that has ended up as a key ring so I don't lose it. Well thought out and handy as you like. Light weight but strong enough to be fit for purpose.
