In recent weeks Retrobike.co.uk has seen a rapid growth in visitors and new forum members. It has coincided with a number of meets and some truly staggering BOTM entries. Clearly the Retro movement is gaining momentum and we at RetroBike towers are thrilled to see it !! Now our holidays are over we will be bringing you some new member profiles, exciting BOTM ideas, the first POTM competition and Jezzas new Tip of the Month initiative (which has already helped me out !!!) The next official RetroBike meet is in the diary, scheduled for 13/14th October and Neil (Mr K) has already put in some great work to ensure this will be a top event (see the 'meet' forum). So make sure you have a pass, or better still bring your other half with you ...
What better way of ensuring the survival of the creed we all love than by sporting some of the fabulous merchandise available. The RetroBike crew have commissioned some of the top designers to create a unique set of apparel that will stand you out from the crowd and help spread the message. Along with the awesome racing jerseys which were worn by all those in attendance at Mountain Mayhem there are casuals T’s and Freeride jerseys for those who prefer a less figure hugging look.. Check out the Shop or drop John a PM to check what is available.. RetroBike does not pay for itself and JV has gone to a lot trouble to source this stuff so your support is appreciated !!
Just recieved the following from Billy Savage, the man behind Klunkerz - I'm setting up for the Hollywood screening of KLUNKERZ at the 600 seat Vine Street Theater on Saturday, June 30th at 5:00pm near the corner of Hollywood and Vine.

Last Saturday (24th March) saw the the first RetroBike meet of 2007, 27 members descended on the North Downs and had a blast around the trails. To read a full account of the day and see some pictures of the bikes on show read on or check out this thread in the Rides/Meets forum. The scene was set, the time was finally upon us, after nearly 4 months of pulsating expectation the day had arrived for the RetroBike Spring Meet 07. The previous months of secret training, the mass accumulation of parts from ‘the BAY’, the strict calorie control diet to ensure the retro Lycra did not cut off vital air supplies was over…..it was time to break out the GT-85, fill the not so retro camelbak and head to the rendez-vous in the...
