Granted there is little better looking (IMO) than Mr Zero's Hei Hei, or more impressive than Jez's Aqua Yo and you can't but be bowled over by a Klein paintjob or a Merlin weld...
...but, I can't help feeling more chuffed in a way when I see an '87 Saracen Tufftrax or an '88 Marin Bear Valley these days. That little chap has stuck it out for 20yrs and hasn't been loved and cherished and resprayed and upgraded unecessarily, he's toughed it out against the elements and the underclass and the march of time and money and is still going strong. Doing his duty for his (probably abusive and criminal and illegal) owner.
So, here's to our brothers locked away at train stations across the country. Here''s to you. You are tough to survive on the underside of this sceptred Isle - En-Ger-Land. You are gone but not forgotten. Not on this day - St Crispin's Day.*
*not sure if it is St Crispin's day, just wanted to get that in there somewhere. Was the equivalent of playing Elgar's Nimrod on a soundless site. :roll:
