    If like me you keep some money in your bike bag it is a good idea to check it is still legal tender before heading out this year.

    Went to pay for a cuppa and it wasn't until the girl at the counter pointed out that they were no longer accepted that I realised the two tenners I had were both paper ones. Luckily I had a plastic fiver and so the brew was mine :)

    Yep, found 4 old pound coins and a £20 in mine. The pounds will have to go, but the £20 is going in the tank :)

    Totally wrong, Lozzy.

    We're the guys who hide money from the missus!! And then after suffering a headache from the berating for not handing over enough housekeeping, we forget all about our private staches -- except @PauloHRC who continues his never-ending spree on helmets and accessories!!:)

    There is some truth in both of those statements as I still owe Lozzy a coffee from the Sheffield egg run (that's not suppose to rhyme by the way).

    I also left some cash hidden in my car once, but forgot to remove it when I sold the car, dohh! :eek:
