I have finished sorting all the wee odds and ends out with my wee Betsy and she's running as sweet as a nut.... now I want to give her a new look. Her fishnet stocking look - although quite well done, is a bit too reminiscent of a strip club for my liking! I have a spray gun at my disposal and may a...

I'll be struggling to ride it 50k ... still to do my test - I've jumped the gun somewhat and bought the bike first!! I can take it up and down the dirt track to the shed 100 times I suppose!! (I have no money to book it because I'm heamorhaging money left right and centre on wee Betsy!! ) I think my...
