Careful-you don't want to get something that is so fast it will get away from you.

I kind of figgured it was a furled flag of some sort. If it's a boggie board...perhaps there is a side of DG we need to learn more about.

After more thought...check out the direction of travel of those cars. That is a Union Jack furled.

The plot thickens.

Caught at last- Now you know why we are so slow up the hills on our Tandem rides.
