Just stop it, will ya? Up North the weather's been fine enough; a bit cloudy but at least dry. Until today. Steady rain which looks like it's in for the day, so just don't tell me how good you have it...
Enjoy your ride - the weather's heading your way

PS - green and black eh? You don't think it might look a bit like a chocolate lime?

Previously, I got all special paint from those specialised shops. Have you tried a tartan paint shop? :
I'm going to leave now...
