Hello Bill.

I'm trying to open your pictures but all I'm getting is a warning sign from windows saying this.....

There is a problem with this website's security certificate. :( :( :(
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.

That's better Bill. :nod:

That front wheel looked a bit rough but it's polished up well. Frames looking good too. Welcome to the black snot club. :lol: :lol: As for those brembo brakes. Well I think they look shit and you should give them to me and I'll put them in the rubbish bin for you. :D
