Beautiful bike, lovely companion and spectacular countryside. And I guess it's moving toward summer in the Southern Hemisphere. Have fun!

BTW, what is "RC"? I first thought "radio control." :lol:

Mmmmmm, you look happy :D
Does your lady also ride your bikes, or does she prefer to concentrate on the scenery as you do the riding? Will she get the biking bug from your cool R? 8)
I am looking forward to getting my black R very soon, and I would like to know how you find the low seat on yours.

Actually I prefer the low seat than the standard one. I am 5´.6 with a 31´inseam so i feel myself better seated in the low seat, low speed handling is better, and i feel it softer than the stock seat...
