    Re: For All You "Old School" Brits.

    I aint a brit. but I sure am old-school enough to enjoy this...
    My hands are tied,
    The billions shift from side to side,
    And the wars go on with brainwashed pride,
    For the love of God and our human rights....

    A proof that vintage bikes can carry a lot of fun factor without any modern facilities...

    under the T shirt ....... I noticed a few waterproof tops (it gets really cold and damp up the Mountain section) ..... some form of class colour coding going on as well?
