Barkbusters are the bee's knees, the pride of Oz. They'll be great on the 'strada. I consulted with Matthew Philpott about having a set sent up here, but the price was more than I could bear. Close to US$200 by the time they'd have reached me.

The Acerbis knockoffs have been great so far. Lord knows I've dropped the bike quite a few times!

When do we get to see this new steed, TB? You going to join us for drinks tonight at Jackie's?

cheers
