  2. C90s /are/ big bikes. Anyway, in adverse conditions, you'll do better with
    something small and light that'll keep trundling along than some wretched
    sports-tourer that'll cruise at the ton on the autobahn but will spin up and
    fall over on the slippy stuff. In conditions like those pictured, you'd be
    doing well to average 20mph on any bike.

    boxerboy <> gurgled happily, sounding much like
    they were saying:

    Did somebody call?

    I've got a pair of Slowlexes, if somebody wants to borrow the other one...

    Heh, that's the preferred ride [1] of my neighbour.

    Actually I quite fancy owning one for a while. Got to be a proper
    French one though not one of those Chinese modern ones.

    At one point TOG and i had thought of getting one to take to the
    Velosolex races in France. By the next day we had sobered up and
    forgot all about. Try googling it.
