I had a new Arai Viper GT delivered today, so while walking down to the
car park I thought happily about the pleasure of putting my bonce in a
nice, plush, fresh-as-a-daisy interior.

Forgot all about the head-in-a-vice aspect of a new lid that hasn't
bedded in, obviously. Mmmm, comfy.

I got a new Airoh off road thing this week.

What is it about off road bike gear that means the colours should be
