Well, we made it back from Galway in one piece. Absolutely delighted with the new purchase.
A real credit to Richie for putting together such a well sorted mini. It handles like an absolute dream,
and just wants to rev forever. Took a couple of snaps

Maxi, you're breaking my heart with those pictures!!
My 4 year old wasn't too impressed about the "bad man and lady" taking Daddy's mini away that day!!!!
Glad you are enjoying it, keep posting pics.
