Well, the bloke who trashed my bike is being pretty decent about things. He is paying for a replacement for my dear departed Witcomb tourer, all hand built with custom components. He also coughed up for the cost of hiring a bike while we were in Brighton and he’s sent me £50 to buy a second-hand bike to keep me on the road while the new one is being built (it will take about 8 weeks).

Not a moment too soon either. I’ve been riding Mr. BK’s bike for a fortnight. Hes 6′ and I’m only 5′4″! Not a good fit.

 Off later this afternoon to pick up an old Raleigh hybrid bike, which will do very nicely for the time being.
