No worries there, Ken! I spoke with Raymond by phone last night and he's no Nimbin Nimrod, nor is he a Rainbow Region Ranger, but a right, proper expat Brit living the good life up in the beautiful State of Vermont.
I have a good sense that we'll be meeting up, when time and weather allows, to do some riding together both down here and up there. He'll be more than ready to break in his R3T come Sprigtime.
