Well, you rather spoilt it by limiting yourself to only being tempted to apply; a temptation which you failed to pursue and anyway, had you done so, would have foundered on the rocks as your toilet has a perfect gearbox, thereby disqualifying yourself by your own admission.
Of course you could have always kept schtum, collected your free return ticket and let me ride your bike.... But I would have found it to be excellent, which would have rather wasted everyone's time. I would have reported back that I had ridden (with some vigour) an allegedly shonky bike but found it fine... Which would have just made you look foolish.
PS You missed a decent jaunt either way. Come along another time.
PPS I did once miss a Tosser off a jaunt, for which I am suitably penitent.
