UPDATE – November 2011: Bob has now been sold and is now being used to haul cricket gear 
He has been replaced with an Extrawheel Voyager.
They have arrived! Today I got to pick up Julia, my brand spanking new 2008 Giant XTC 2 and Bob [links to photo album], my 2008 BOB Ibex Plus trailer. I brought them from Kalamunda Cycles and my thanks to Jo and Tim Bennett for their service. Bob cost me $532.68 cents, a pretty reasonable price I believe.
