Far to good for your mrs to ride though........

[IDB1]

Rather like that.. the red/white/chrome works well

 

[marin man]

Opportunity knocks . . . but I'd just be accused of lowering the tone (again) . .

 

[cyfa2809]

no!
works well on the seat though! brings the leather right up

 

[marin man]

Trouble with putting it on your seat is it would be a bit to close for my liking.... (I bet you have a catering tub in the shed)

 

[cyfa2809]

for special occasions

 

[marin man]

Falls over laughing.....

I love this place
