John's New Hobby Cont.

...so to update: last night, whilst wheeling my punctured bike back into town from the station, I found a new hubcap for John. This was lucky for him as had my front wheel not been flat I would have taken a different route. He happened to be up and about when I got home about 1am, which was good as he got his new present all the quicker, and let me tell you he was delighted. Here is proof.


It is easy to see why many would consider this to be the finest 'cap in HM J's rapidly burgeoning collection - it is more intricate than the other 2 and boasts shiny stud nuts (non-functional) which, while adding measures of machismo and street credibility, are not overstated to the point of opulence. It plays a diplomatic role between a normal, down-to-earth wheel mounting, and a more extrospective and socially aware statement of consciousness: bold yet caring and sensitive. In short, a fine hubcap, all the more pleasing for it's well considered balance. (8.2/10)
