Our prospective adoptive kids (5 & 7) live on the other side of town to us and we'd be keeping them where they are for the rest of this year to disrupt their lives as little as reasonably possible so I am emphatically *not* looking forwards to a driving "school run" for a while, but we've got a Me'n'U2 parked in the garage which we're hoping to deploy to a new and nearer school come September.

Oh the fun you will have. Just be careful of the cars pulling along side and then slowing so the passengers can take a picture on their mobiles. After five years riding one it still surprises me when this happens. Alas they never send me the pictures. Possibly the best bike I have ever bought and I blame Guy for it. --chris |
