They are everywhere ... this is Australia after all!!!<br /><br /> ... although having said that, South Australia is still yet to prosecute me for my helmet crime back in May - maybe they've decided to be all grown-up about it and not bother which if that is the case just goes to provide further evidence for our position that helmet law sucks and is extraordinarily dumb!<br /><br />Hope your autumn is full of beautiful colours and leaves! xxFreedom Cyclisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11187400454555241935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3090991993980511979.post-30245621548145236962014-10-04T10:00:41.691+10:002014-10-04T10:00:41.691+10:00So lovely.
