  1. Today was the closest i've come to being flattened by an Artic. (not roll) I'm not sure why i didn't get the shakes straight afterwards, maybe just adrenaline. It was unmarked luckily for the driver or would be on the phone for sure.

  2. Chris, how many lives have you used up out of the 9.?
     
  3. I think we have used them all up Pete - many on here, and you included? Definitely been lucky many times, and i think that's typical of a biker of several decades, and this was on a bicycle!

  5. I've decided to return it. It doesn't sound like there's going to be any problem.

    It actually needs about 4"/10cm shortening. Why it was ultimately too much to live with, but also slightly concerning in that I found a chart - possibly by them - with the various parameters to measure - which agrees with my measurement, ie, XL having 69cm sleeves, yet the smallest (XS) still has 65cm sleeves. If I need ~59cm the implication is I have amusingly short arms - yet I've always got jackets, coats, shirts and sweaters that fit off the peg.
    Anyway I'll post back here once I've got one that really fits - touching on who pays for shipping - and if it all works out, I'll probably buy a black one, too.
