I had a quick spin on Jim's VDC at the weekend. I'd never saw what the attraction was before but after a quick ride I'm totally converted and think it's bloody awesome.

Thanks Si  :daumenhoch:

I rode it at Herne Bay after the racing on saturday. It certainly is a boulevard cruiser. Didn't stop me pulling some sit down wheelies and 360s though!  :LolLolLolLol:
