For the past 26 years, the bike and the car have worked in tandem, one
taking me on trips where the other wasn't required.
Not any more. The car got well and truly crunched in a classic
nose-to-tail yesterday arvo, and I don't like its chances after that.
So it's back to the bike for the time being, though my wife would
obviously like me to acquire another four wheeled vehicle, but that may
take a while.
Cheers,
Ray

expensive than Ray's old car :/Bad news for you Ray. Insurance claim? Hope you're uninjured. Yes, I do
imagine your wife will need a car eventually. All the best.

Rhoades car), they're neither fish nor fowl. Take the Rhoades Car,

cyclepath but imagine riding it in traffic!
