Those are quite long lasting

When ridden they tend to feel a bit wooden

Luckily not prone to tin rot

Watch out for wood worm

With a manual, you may be able to get to the root of any problems  :)

I got a jar of Marmalade, Danish in origin I believe.

I hear that Sadiq Khan is tryint to piece together a charging scheme if you take one of these into London. I think he's barking up the wrong tree.

Apparently, an individual was caught in attempt at evading all of the London traffic charges by travelling up the Thames by motorpike & sidecarp, baboom-tish  :)
