Seriously leaning towards that, NL. I only need something to get me moving a few miles a day. Gig offers free parking and there are some really lovely motors my banger would look great next to. -

Are you training it to Swindon?
Just wondering if a moped might be a solution - easier through traffic, no problem parking, etc…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Plus a good chain to stop it being stolen. Not a piece of tulip one of my neighbours uses which is worse than what I use on my cheap bike.Originally posted by WTFH View PostAre you training it to Swindon?

I've hired a car with unlimited mileage for a single day where I've had a big round trip. 500 miles at 45p per mile and no mileage on your car. Although, I can't quite remember how I did the accounting, as it was many years ago.Comment

I had one of these. You have no idea how irritating is it to get stopped by the police for speeding every five minutes.Originally posted by northernladuk View PostGot to be something with a different coloured wing or door for the win. Ideally unpainted.

I have thought about it. It would actually be the perfect solution. The only thing that put me off was the prospect of hat hair, or helmet hair to be more precise. Also falling off the moped. Lord knows why I think I'd fall off it. I'll probably take one for a test run next time I'm in London.Originally posted by WTFH View PostAre you training it to Swindon?
