Brings back memories of 1986. Somehow managed to get up it on the Big Red
Roockhooper, which experience has made me determined never to return without
an engine...

The tale was told by my friend Mr Sheen. Him and some of his hairy-arsed
courier chums had been off playing on 'ampstead 'eaff on the mountain bikes,
before repairing to the Pubbe. In the Gents of which resided a blackboard,
complete with chalk, in order that the witticisms of the clientele might be
recorded thereupon, rather than on the walls. And so it came to pass that
various of them scrawled Stuff about the merits of their respective
bicycles. And one chap, whose name I forget, wrote "Roockhoopers are
beest". "We didn't know he was dsylexic until then" said Mr Sheen.

Since which time I have been unable to think of my '86 Rockhopper as
anything other than a Roockhooper. Even though it was kidnapped by thieving
pikey lowlife scumbags in 1990. Oh, and it was red. And big.

And then there was light and He thought it was good, so He threw the receipt
away.
