Default out of the mouths of babes

My daughter spotted a photo in The Herald-Sun the other day and asked
what it was about. I explained it was a group of farmers protesting. The
6 y.o. veteran of a few WOJ rides asked in all seriousness "Well where
are their bikes?".

about the VFF taking over the Ride to work Day breakfast... where are
their bikes indeed!

Hey,
I'm a bona fide farmer and I use a mountain bike (Giant Trance 3)
instead of a motor bike. Much better for a lone operator and keeps me
fit, also heaps cheaper.

Can't see myself growing too many more Trances in the present climatic
conditions.
