No, i'll let you have one if you promise to ride it carefully and keep to the highway code. :Very Happy
Suspicion can arise though through getting bikes too frequently on this scheme, like someone I knew rode it to work only once, the bike was never seen again and we assumed he had sold it, then he was sacked for theft of mail, not of course that i'm suggesting that you're anything other than a decent, honest, hard working stalwart of the community. :Very Happy

Sometimes, just sometimes, the bad jokes and the name calling are far more interesting than the original thread.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I think that's the first time in 1732 posts that I've been ticked off for a "bad joke" but I shall try to do better in future and I shall of course continue to refrain from the loathsome practice of "name calling" :Very Happy
Anyway, to move on ;

Get one of these, it'll last 3 times longer :crazy:
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Maybe, but if Glennyboy has got two friends they might not want to go to the same place and at the same time as him. :nana
