Wombat watch this space I’ll send you and Anne a pic later that explains why I’ve dashed across Europe yesterday 😉 

Can't say I am not intrigued!! 

I'm also intrigued :) 

Did you see the new addition to our family, Wombat? 😍😍😍 HumpT a happy man.  

I lived in the Ribble Valley in Lancashire where the bike company gets its name from the River Ribble for over a decade, beautiful place and my grandfather cycled to work next to the Foundry in Birmingham along the canal where Reynolds originally made its world famous steel frames so this British beauty has many memories and connections to me ❤️💙 

sure did Anne. getting a passion item after 7 months of waiting, I would be pretty happy too tbh. getting excited about a new bicycle is so wholesome, it's nice to see Had no idea the legendary Reynolds tubing originated in Birgingham. seems like a nice place to live in if you're into cycling, the place must be packed with sexy steel frames on two wheels 

Birmingham - Wombat the city of my birth - has never been described as sexy and probably never will 🤣🤣🤣 / Peakey Blinders TV Show / Duran Duran, ELO or Black Sabbath - take your pick, plenty of scrap floating in the canals but it’s blessed me with one of the worst accents in the UK (Brummie) other FS members will verify this for sure that apart however fortunate I am to split my time in Europe it will always be Home 🏡  

yeah I would have guessed it's not the most cheerful place. I'd pick sabbath every time 🤟 

though A view to a Kill was a banger 

I concur 🎸
