Default I'm too cool - Confession time

Yesterday I nearly ran into the back of a car in the local high street, while looking in shop windows to see how cool I thought I looked on my Bike.

I'm not the only vain sod who imagines they look ace on a bike am I?

Yes you are.

I don't imagine I look ace, but do checkout the shop windows on occassion just to see myself on the bike.
See plenty of other riders doing the same but not sure how many would admit it. LOL

I've done it before mate ... while stationary at traffic lights. I think you need to write in Pleb's Corner on the GM board.

I used to, before my matabolism did the usual trick once over 30 and sent the waistline up a few notches... No such illusions any more and my daughter for some reaqson tells me I'm not cool on a frequent basis, just because I try to embarass her in front of her mates on a fequent basis.
