Here's a long shot BUT...
The Rapha H-Van is currently stuck on Granary Square, Kings Cross. On Tuesday it didn't start because the battery was low, but after an hour charging with a battery charger it just about got going and drove down to Granary Square where it was doing some Wiggins Hour Record promo stuff.
This afternoon it was supposed to return to the office on York Way, but it's not starting. It looks like the battery has a bit of juice left but the starter motor just isn't catching properly.
THE MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION:
Does anyone 'on here' have experience fiddling with old vans or know a car mechanic with experience with old vehicles who would be able to come and have a look at it tomorrow? It's supposed to be driving to Smithfield Market for the Nocturne on Saturday morning so it's quite urgent that it gets fixed soon, not to mention it's stranded on Granary Square and the private owners won't like that very much after a few days.
