Couldn't resist 'em! She's gonna go flippin chicken oriental! Well, unless I wear me spandex underneath .. and gimp mask ....... :o Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Chris24 on January 19, 2005, 12:32:39 am Nice, good price as well.
Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Canada Phil on January 19, 2005, 07:04:00 am Well done Rick. Can you sqeeeze into an XL then?
Having been in storage so long do they have a nice musty smell with traces of CastrolR? Canada Phil Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Steve Pyro on January 19, 2005, 10:02:40 am They'll be a bit impractical to wear when you're out cycling though Rick :-\
Still, good auction, just as well it wasn't a Bond Bug ;D Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Mr. Rick on January 19, 2005, 10:06:49 am Thanks chaps!
XL? My standard size these days Phil, honest!! All this cycling lark is working wonders. Would have gone down a treat with the Bondy too wouldn't they Steve - very retro!! Not quite sure if I'll ever wear them but I can always use them when working on the bikes!! ;D Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Fax on January 19, 2005, 03:14:34 pm Nice pick-up there Rick. As someone who collects racing memorabilia that was a hell of a deal. That would probably set you back about three hundred bucks from a dealer. Never ceases to amaze me how sought after the Silk Cut Jag and Rothmans Porsche stuff is, even after all these years.

Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Fax on January 20, 2005, 03:18:16 pm Rick,
At Sebring you would probably be able to wear that until about seven thirty in the morning, after that its t-shirts and shorts. As you know, Rolex is another matter, there have been evening's where I would have have killed to have a nice heavy set of overalls on. Fax :) Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Mr. Rick on January 20, 2005, 04:04:20 pm Might just get the chance to put the theory to the test this March!
Got free accomo and transport sorted and a certain Florida based team keeps offering to pay for a flight (if they race!) so just maybe given the right circumstantions (one of my favourite Spoonface-isms) I could try it out at an early opportunity ;D ;) Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Fax on January 20, 2005, 04:56:36 pm If you get the chance to go to Sebring, by all means jump at it!
You'll love it, simple as that. Its got Smokie and Chris...hook, line & sinker. Fax Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: jpchenet on January 20, 2005, 05:05:36 pm Come on Rick........you know it makes sense!!!!!!!!! ;)
Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Mr. Rick on January 20, 2005, 05:50:28 pm I know it makes sense - it not me that has to be convinced. Even Le Mans is being questioned this year!!!! :o :o :o :o :o :o
Not been earning too many pennies recently. Two of the six bikes are having to go (apparently that will still be 3 too many!!). Gissa job! Title: Re:Oh dear, look what I've just bought!!! Post by: Mr. Rick on January 20, 2005, 05:51:21 pm And of course buying things like old mechanics overalls won't help either (it's not common knowledge in the Wilson household yet!!).
