    What's your favourite retro snack?

    What's your favourite retro snack?

    Worst mtb ever !!!!!!!!!!!!! The Raleigh Activator II

    My first, and worst bike... First MTB, a DUAL suspension Emmelle. How excited was I? How heavy was this lump of iron? Nearly had a hernia humping it round Glentress in 2001.
