walking back from viccy park with my friend lucy, we got waylaid by a road full of trees in blossoms which i snagged for you all, but round the corner we came upon these lads mending their rickshaws and struck up conversation.
so here they are...

I wonder how many stars that gets from the crash-safty testing people?

are you sure? these look like they were in the 'mad max' movies.

something for the left field cyclism on citynoise, i thought. i don't usually include people, but i got talking to them, and the recycling of a wheelclamp seemed worth a mention, but i love the first one, it having been completely constructed from finds.

that looks so much fun & certainly safer than regular bikes (i tend to fall over as soon as i see a bike, let alone ride one!)

elaine: 20th Mar 2006 - 15:57 GMT

i did, grudgingly, feel quite safe, as it happens... but i am not taking up paragliding now, or anything else.

an impossible child: 20th Mar 2006 - 15:59 GMT

:P

paragliding sounds fun although maybe a bit um insanely brave xxx

elaine: 20th Mar 2006 - 16:59 GMT

for me, paragliding stands for just about anything i am too afraid to do, but imagine would be lovely if i did. except bungee jumping. that's just wrong.
