I think of them as 'Viffers' as well
Any luck with your winter bike yet?

Well as I said, the idea is that it'll do more than just be a hack - I intend to use it for pleasure riding in the winter months as well.

And if the winter does dull the plastics, well at least it's black, it could make a good rat bike! Spikes, skulls and a furry seat cover - really not my thing!
