Peeledbaloon? I remember the name from when I was first on the scene. Now I'm back as well albeit via the internet as I'm a little bit too far for a ride out. Keep safe.

Grandma, another blast from the past. My memory works if nothing else! I did notice a load of Brit bikers down this way earlier in the year. I think they have returned to hibernate now. '<img'> Look forward to seeing people if they pass my way. Keep safe.
