View Full Version : Never seen that before

I pulled up in the car at a set of lights this morning and while I was waiting for them to go green I noticed a cyclist starting to ride slowly from my left across the front of the stopped cars to get to the other lights so that he could then cross in the opposite direction.

As I usually do, I took a quick look to see what name was on the downtube, expecting to see the usual Giant, Specialised or Trek or any one of a dozen of the usual suspects, but I couldn't quite make out the name. Then as he moved directly in front of my car, I saw the name.

Well stuff me, it was another Llewellyn :banana: In the 8 years that I've had mine I've never seen another one in the wild. This one had mudguards, which considering how much it was raining was a good decision. All I could tell was that it was green with white panels, and I suspect it was the fellow's daily commuter, whatever the weather. Which is exactly how I would imagine Dazza would like to see his frames being ridden.

So there's at least two Llewellyn's in this part of the world. :banana:

Time to sell??

I'd have thought there weren't too many Carl Strong's in your part of the world (& the name association would just be part of the appeal).

I would take a leaf out of Daniel Boone's book and consider moving.
