Pedals!

You could have upped the price considerably by using a Brooks LTD edition 2007 Swallow. only a few left on their website.
A mate and I used to play fantasy HiFi in the mid 80s using What HiFi magazine, we got to over £30,000 and that only played 12 inch vinyl.

Well, this is mine. I'm not fussy either one will do!

That girl on the left has her saddle too low.

 

[Paulus]

I think the lady on the right has it too high

 

[up hill struggle]

I think the lady on the right has it too high

im not convinced she was planning to use it as a seat. judging by the smile on her face I think she's just found a different way to enjoy her bike.
