Simon – it has been made clear to me that there’s no space for another bike (not even a BMX), a brompton however will fit in the cupboard. Just the job for a lot of things for me I think. Saw an airnamal this evening on the way home and was quite impressed, but I’m more after a city bike i think. (I’ve got a proper roadie already)

Edit – Cheesyfeet, that’s part of the thinking – it’s why I’m convinced im turning into an old fart, about to order another pair of loakes on that basis…

Ah, but the thing is that I’ll be carrying it. Anyone trying to nick it will have to fight their way though a hail of kebab meat and wrench it out of my sweaty, ill tempered, 230lbs grasp 😀

Useful to know about the clips, cheers. Will see if i can get a test ride on one. Dahon Uno also looks interesting, but folds worse.

It’s ok; you’re just, say, shorting a cube and going long on turner.

Ha HA! Righto – reintroducing: HMS Norco, The Death Barge, “It’s like riding a frikkin’ cow”, “you’ll have to lift it, I can’t” “650lbs? You fat sod”…

and I might actually start riding it again soon, having made it slightly lighter since the pic but retained the same bovine handling characteristics. Yay!

Hello all.
