Paused at the lights...

  1. ....in Sutton town centre (got the day off today), and this old boy,
    pushing one of those shopping trolley-cum-walking frames, toddled across
    in front of me, and hsi head kept turning as he eyed the Street Triple.

    Must have been 80 if he was a day.

    And then he clocked the Triumph stickers on the side of the tank, and he
    paused, beamed, and gave me a big thumbs-up.

    Bless.

    Lots of old, bald bikers, though.
