    Marathon Plus Tyre Sizes

    Thanks Flecc Maybe I should give them a try, I guess I just worry about using them in the wet of which we get a lot of and taking a corner a little too quickly. I just wish that the kids of today had more respect for other users of paths/roads. I am sure they wouldn't like it if they...

    Hi Jeremy Now that looks :cool: ! However I would be worried about getting going on it too and would think it may take some getting used to? I wouldn't mind having a go on one though but would probably fall off at my first pedal stroke :eek: I can't see how they can make helmets compulsory...

    wet weather getting you down ...?

    I hate the rain and got a bit wet on way to work this morning but waterproofs okay and stayed quite dry? This looks like a good idea but I would be worried about the wind getting up underneath the canopy considering the gusts and gales we get and taking off like Mary Poppins! :D lol...

    Sorry Flecc, but I did not "dig this up" as you put it and just simply navigated through the posts and I certainly did not want to upset anyone. I did not lecture anyone and simply said I wore one. Please re-check my posts and tell me that I have actually lectured anyone? I did not :( It is...

    Hi Flecc I only stated why I wear one and would certainly not preach and stated in my previous posts that it is a personal choice. I was only saying that it may be beneficial and it was up to the individual. I am sorry if I offended you Flecc as it was unintentional :confused: Mandy
