Bikes: Are faster than yours.

Amazing what pops up on ebay - I'd almost want it on the wall more than I'd want to ride it.

just use LView Pro to screenshot the image. Done.
And FYI Schiek, you should really try using a contraction like "who's" instead of "whose"...kind of like your correction of "break" vs. "brake."
