Stil working on it

 

Hi Bicycle fans in the English speaking parts of our small world. Specially for you I did try to translate the German Manual of the military "Ordonnanzfahrrad" user in the Swiss Army.

I did get a copy as PDF file and had to make first TXT files from that one, page by page. Than I did scan them back as readable PDF files and did some translation with Microsoft Word. So it will not be perfect but who is?

Ofcourse it did not work this way. Any suggestion to make it better is welcome. Hope you like it. Please help me to translate this.
