99% of the time they mix the e and i up. The other times, who knows:)
If they send me those panniers, all will be forgotten ! |
Guess they couldn't read it on the bike?

You don't need to read Dutch, as every citizen of the Netherlands I've ever met spoke and wrote better English than I do. But then again, I come from New York....

I used to search Ebay for Ralieghs. Got a nice one for ten bucks once cause there were no other bidders.
