The tikit featured briefly but Lynette Chang who had the tikit on tour over here didn't understand that I said I wanted it and sold it to whoever. I asked for payment details, heard nothing for a while, next thing SOLD!

So the Birdy came out on top. The Moulton also was mulled over but put on the back burner because it doesn't fold.

So now that I have the Birdy and my go-fast Swift, all the other bikes are on the endangered list.

Except the Yeah - that is such a good bike.

Ah and the Mini - can't bear to part with cutie.

Oh and the R20 - I am thinking of properly having the frame powder coated.

That leaves............... none?! D'oh!
