You are currently trailing out of podium positions behind Ben, Conehead and Shadowone1. A bike sale might push you up the leader chart though. ;)

Try Jack, he may be tempted, keep dangling the carrot.

It was Tritans saying the large was too big that put me off. He's not exactly a pin head.

Bugger.. bugger... bugger...

Just gave my flashy mirrored visor a wash with soap & water, and a gentle polish, and it's all scratched up (well, looks like the coating is coming off rather than being scratched) :(
Have spoken to Evans & hoping to get a replacement under warranty....
How on earth can I try for a fast time on Sat without my visor of anonymity?
Damn... last time I try to clean any of my kit!

Perhaps you shouldn't have used the Brillo pad?

Bugger in deed,

I would think that Evans would replace it, but if not, treat it as Battle damage, kit that is shiny and bright, is not as scary as kit that is shiny and bright but has that used, battle hardened look about.
