Fear not Rossgo. She will get a good spanking. Bikes are made to be ridden imo it's a bonus if there beautiful enough to admire.

Cheers Rossgo probably one of my best ever biking moments of 2015 today.
That bike was absolutely epic today and felt special which is what biking is all about at the end of the day.
Rounding of a perfect afternoon now with a beer in the sunshine and he kids playing nicely in the garden.

Totally agree it is specia, we are only a minority on the road, and we get heads turning everywhere we go, got to love the feel of that!
Enjoy your afternoon/ evening it's bright blue skies definitely got to make the most of it!
