the cheapie full suspension mountain bike has sat in the garage at the beach house for over ten years now (plus a few hidden in my study at home). the box is unopened, but the tyres are probably perished. suppose it is out of warranty now? I have received it every birthday and Xmas since it became public knowledge. miserable bastards! must open it to break the gift cycle. haven't pushed a pedal in anger for fifteen years. done "round the ranges", "beachland/thames", "t'puna/helensville retn". just not Taupo solo. i still "pedal" a BMW!? does that count?
