I was there this year. Certainly felt more expensive an 'lifestyle' than in previous editions. This was my first at the new location. Missed Bakewell but understood why it moved. Went with a friend and we rode together all the way around on the social 30 miler. Was great fun! Probably wouldn't...

Re: Selection of 700c road wheels.Mavic/Campag/Shimano looking for 6 or 7 spd with 126OLD, what have you got please.

well this event is only a few weeks away!, my bike is built (kind of test ridden!) but the campervan we where going to attend the festival in has just been sold by the Father-in-law...... don't you just love family!

Booked a place on the ride on the first day tickets released. Booked a festival pass for the missus at the same time and fortunately managed to book a campervan space at the weekend - once I managed to find one that someone would lend me :) Really looking forward to it - just hope I've finished...

unfortunately that's the difference between running at cost and running at a profit :)

Lovely Bike - unless I missed it - could you let me know from where you got the replica Olmo decals as I need to source some for a frame respray.

thanks but now only looking for wheels

Just got my ticket and am more than pleased with the entry cost :) Not done anything like this before and can not wait to do it. (Not gospel but) ... The first year of running anything is normally run at a non-profit basis to make sure all the seats are taken, therefore its no real surprise...

Hi there, Currently got a 6 speed 126mm space rear wheel with screw in freewheel Regina ore cassette (Ofmega hubs I think - campy low flange copies) Might be a stupid question, but can I easily replace this with a 7 speed freehub? If the above is yes, then will the chain I've got for the 6...

Hi people, I've got a winter project on my hands for L'Eroica next year, a 1982 Olmo and am currently stripping it down and sourcing parts for it etc etc. I think the bike is going to be the easy bit to be honest - I'm more concerned about clothing and more importantly shoes. A: What sort of...
