We have small spiders here that we call jumping spiders.   Get your finger, stick or bazooka close to them and they JUMP.  This is their theme song.   Good harp too.   

Pretty good song to have in your head for biking too.  I am going out with one of my old biking friends Friday, Bug.   I plan to hit it hard for ten miles with 6 of it slightly uphill.   Then lunch and an easy ten back.  Wish me luck.  I've been riding, but I am old as Methussala.

Cheers Guys check the plug pickup I did on Wayfarer's blog too..
It's seems these As 104 transformers make it all very easy to get almost anything working as a pick up... This one is the C shape aluminium one..back near the bridge.
