50 years of biking

**slofox** · 2nd March 2018, 06:36

Seems to me I have had a bike licence for 50 years this month. After getting pinged for not having one...

If I'd known I was gunna live this long I might have taken more care...probably not though.

thread has nothing to do with riding school. you fuckwit.

OK - My apologies. I may have met one or two non-fukwit types

I do try and treat all posters with respect. Occasionally I fail, but it's the thought that counts.

I will certainly be giving 'Mr Cassina' more respect, and time, in light of his advancing years
