Are you a laydee, then?

 

[walker]

yeah that wins it........ oh sorry I thought this was the ugly bike thread sorry

 

[Arch]

Ah! A stealth bike! Like it...

 

[rich p]

I didn't know my mum was selling it!

 

[mickle]

Are you a laydee, then?

I am an heterosexual fellow confident enough of my gender allocation as to feel unselfconchuss whilst perambulating a cycle with an 'open' or 'drop-tube' frame.

And then there's the kilt.

Hmmm. I need a bike with an open frame. If I fit a sprog seat to any of my bikes I can see me accidentally kicking the sprog as I swing my leg over (so to speak).
Like it!.

Mickle is a laydee and cycles in a laydee like fashion.

 

[fossyant]

Very 'Retro'

 

[Chuffy]

Oddly appealing.

It's knackered, the tubes are bent. Mind you, the purse net on the front could easily be mistaken for a basket by the gamekeeper.

 

[dbg]

That is one seriously ugly bike! Sorry!

It's knackered, the tubes are bent.

[Orstraylian accint]That's not bent, this is bent![/Orstraylian accint]

brakes?

I've just noticed it's got Raleigh Grifter style mudflap thingies on it!

I bent mine over to make a motorbike noise on mine, melted U-shaped holes in them and got a clip round the ear for me trouble.
