That's a smart looking bike. Make sure you look after it. I would be afraid of some thieving toe-rag nicking it.

I've even seen them around here riding bikes without saddles. Looks bleedin' uncomfortable to me. :o ::)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Totally off topic here, but I like the carpet samples under the Washing machine/dishwasher/tumble dryer. A simple, yet effective example of domestic noise abatement...
