The new ride

So, as I was saying last night. I got myself a new Proton T-Bolt. In case it didn't occur to you, it's Proton as in Malaysia's national car brand. Yes! Bet you didn't know they had bicycles too didn't you. No Worries, a lot of non-bikers wouldn't know. Let when I first started biking. Cost me Rm880 @ ABC Bicycles. Unfortunately, I later found out that it isn't the "upgraded" version, which has a different rear shock and a newer model derailleur. But what can I say, looked good. :p And now, it's sitting comfortably at home.
