On yer bike!

I didn't mention it before, but two weeks ago my severely arthritic ( registered disabled ) mother decided to have a go on her friend's bike, here in Turkey ( not this one!). The attempt went well until she approached a hill, at which point she decided to push the bike. When she attempted to re-alight, as she pushed down on the pedal, it collapsed under her, she tumbled and ended up on the floor with the bike on top of her. She felt "absolutely fine", went home and had a cup if tea. It was a while later that my father pointed out the massive lump on her head. This was tended to with ice. The next morning she awoke to discover that she now had a huge, purple "black eye". A shocker of one. Two weeks on she still has a nasty bruise on her face, I'm sure it's been very embarrassing going out and about. Poor Mum.
I blipped this bike at a local craft shop, a cottage that has been totally decorated using the items being sold. A feast to the eyes.
