I was even in the fan club as a nipper. Then I got bored of the mag despite still enjoying mint.</p> <p>Came across a strip recently where mint rides along until the last scene at the bottom of the hill and finds a line of &quot;dudes&quot; waiting for the uplift. Reminded me of the monty python sketch about the milk men.</p> <p>Miny has still got it!</p> <p>+1 on the book.</p> <p>Really liked firdge suck and road bike from years ago. The dad teaching him to ride one was great as well. Reminds me of my late gran buying me my firts (and most after that) bike. </p> http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/what-is-your-fav-joburt-cartoon/page/5#post-1749865 Fri, 27 Aug 2010 12:21:30 +0000 daffyduck 1749865@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/ <p>just noticed this thread...must do something with all the mint sauce pics stored in the filing cabinet. In terms of favs I like the one where mint has just had a stack and he and his bike are in a bit of bother - the Reality Squadron are hovering menacingly overhead.
