Re: Slowies crash
Visited Marc around 6pm. Marc was resting in bed with quite a few bandages on and bit sorry looking but in good spirits.
If anyone has experience of claiming against vehicles please PM Marc.

Bike Pump found at Cafe this morning
Someone left a big chunky pump (Blackmans) on the seat at the cafe. It was probably in their pocket. Could this have been you Taylor?
I handed it in. Its on the high shelf behind the cash register.

C 28s did 29.0 kms average per hour.
Thats 'C' for 'Circa'.
That's the speed it will stay.
Anything greater (and with skills) is Middies. Congratulations on all those who have graduated to Middies .
