The beetle town and pgo - 20:15
Mikal seems to be wondering what is
up with Sydney and the Mini
S Cooper, he probably has not noticed that Canberra appears to be the VW
Beetle capital of the world,
Stewart,
Pia and Bob's daughter Gemima all appear
to have noticed that every second car in Canberra is a Bug.
Andrew likes the
new p.l.o.a theme, suggesting it
is the best he has seen. I would like to point out it is almost identical to
the p.g.o theme put in place about two
months ago that, at the time, got a lot of positive comments. I suspect MRD
created this with suggestions/hints from that theme anyway. I have noticed one
problem with the new theme, my
previous
post, viewing it on my 1024x768 laptop screen, with the image and tables
has been made even thinner, as the text does not flow across the table
columns, the text being so thin means it goes a lot further down the page,
sort of like writing for Suck I guess.

Lilac Camouflage - 13:52
One hell cool helmet (full size)
|
No I have not broken
another helmet,
however I saw
this one and had to have it. A cheap helmet that fits me well, and whats
more it is sort of like Lilac Camo. Helmets hardly get much better. I am
happy to say the fit really is good, I wore it riding yesterday for a few
hours and the helmet does not rock forward and back at all and sits on my head
nicely. I sort of miss the adjustable peak of the Giro E2, but hey I can wear
the E2 any time I want still so it is not that bad.
And as for my predilection for
different colours and
stuff for my
bikes this helmet is brilliant. I think it works much better than various
other efforts in
pink camo
too. Isn't this great, the next time I go riding through a field of slightly
off colour flamingos, absolutely no one will be able to see me from above.
