Thanks Deb, although Beth might not notice another bike, however a large chunk of money missing would never get passed her, seemed a good deal though, I mean her birthday and I get the present......

Cheers Mark.

Ooo you actually got it.
Looks fantastic, stealing a sit on it, if it makes it up soho soon.

Mmm, looks nice. Shame it didn't make it to Frith St. on Friday.

rictus01 · 25-10-09, 10:26 PM

didn't pick it up until yesterday Keith and I wasn't at Soho on friday anyway, still should be there next week.

Cheers Mark.

I'm liking that. As a top contender for next bike I want a decent review please Mark. Want to know what I am letting myself in for.

No worries mate, I'm planning a decent days riding tomorrow, I'll let you know.

Cheers Mark.
