I gotta say - I had some goddam rough days of late....

But - I was enjoying an extra week off on leave, feeling little guilt and recovering. Of course - it could not last - and even while on annual leave I just had to go into work today... (sigh) and i was not a particularly happy camper...

Anyways - I had to go for a stroll, ended up walking past Motorad... Dropped in to check out a funky retro open face for rumpty rumping on the Triumph around Kapiti cafe's etc... Didn't quite see it in my size... but on the Sale table... 1 x Rjays retro leather jacket in red, white and black and it fits quite well and - its $99.......

Yes $99 - I scooped it up....

Friggin Bargain.... Blardy made my day!!!!!

Any day above ground is a good day ( James Rayne) ...and to score a bargin like that is an extra bonus.

Well done that man! A bloody bargain and it will be the perfect latte getting gear for the coast cruiser.
Got to get some old style goggles now there Paul and you will be a complete retro lad.
