the first casualty of practicality

In exchange for a shim for a front gear mech I got a man off the internet to pose for a photo after he mentioned having stylish red arm warmers a few times which I thought might be useful for illustrating a small section of the thing I was writing for Anth Wilmington-Cow's electrical bike magazine. Curiously he was wearing a coat over them when he arrived at the rendezvous, though it wasn't a completely opaquely-sleeved coat so it didn't entirely spoil the co-ordinating effect. Partly due to always feeling like a twat when directing people for pictures I didn't ask him to do the pose I originally thought might be good but it can perhaps be utilised for something else at some point.
