Well, I popped over to my mother's to see what had been nicked from my bike in transit - nothing!

Hooray!

Bike needs some new stuff before I ride it on the road again - nothing major: mirrors, horn, electrics(gulp) and Icould do with some new fairings and the beak.


But all in all I'm happy!

Wish I'd managed to get a Russia sticker for my panniers:

I think the dents speak volumes more than the stickers. ;)

That big one is where my foot (somehow) got caught - that dent cost me my 3rd & 4th meta-tarsal! (and the rest of my trip). Next set of panniers I buy are going to be made out of marshmallow ;o)

Stabilisers might be a better investment. :twisted:

I am surprised you have as much to say K, specially as it already looks like he hit it with a BIG hammer :)

Wasnt he looking for another bike tho - quick, sell him a blade :)

Ahhh, y'see, the dent was done with a foot rather than a hammer, so scores no points for technical expertise, though 9/10 for style/location...

... but minus several million for sense and sensibilty. ;)

it's like looking at your passport that!!! .. probably even has some of your DNA imprinted into it as well ;)
