those hairy bikers...

ok well, perhaps the royal enfield doesn't evoke images of hairy bikers. not even really scary bikers. and that is probably a good thing. a good thing because on saturday i decided (it may not have been a very carefully calculated decision, more like a whim) to suggest to darling dearest that we go check out the new royal enfield shop in the leaping frog shopping centre in fourways. he's been giving the enfield the side-glance ever since he happened upon the shop in 44 stanley. and it's not a bad bike, as far as bikes go... especially on the appearance side, with it's classic old-style good looks.


but it's still a motorbike. and i can't say that i'm a big advocate of my one and only being involved with anything to do with something so dangerous. no matter how many benefits are listed.

as for the new store, it's cool in its simplicity. i liked the design elements, the play on colour between the store and the adjacent bulleteers bar. nice concept. i hope that they will get much attention and traffic in this little centre... as for joining the bulleteers, well we'll see...
