I think the first races start at 10 ish , Marty C is going down to watch should be a good laugh

That sure is a lovely example and in amazing condition . They are definatley one of the nicest bikes i have ridden , it is very stiff and with the short chainstays one of the best climbing bikes , which is helpful as i'm not much of a fan of going uphill ! My one was slightly different as it had...

http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... highlight= I think it should be here ? Some history and photos of my DONKIS NOB I remember seeing your bike on e-bay very nice and looks in awesome condition

Yeah i did alot of those races back then with Darren , he used to ride GT's(Zaskar ,Xizang , rts) and then Fats and Yetis .

yeah its in readers bikes under 1993 dave yates 1 of a kind DONKIS NOB is yours also on here ? you don't see many of them

They do tend to be done in loops of different lengths but i think that the enduro type races are popular now which are longer and go from point to point .its all a good laugh though

I'm entering my first XC race in nearly 15 years this sunday at the soggy bottom series down at Newnham . i'm going to keep it retro and use my 1993 Dave Yates DONKIS NOB which is all polished and shiny ! 2 of my old mates from BITD are racing as well ( Darren Tapp and Elbry Sandland) so it...

Thats the one , really nice looking hadn't seen it on here though .

Just been seaching through bits on ebay and came across an Orange Dynamo road frame and forks looked immaculate , i always wanted one BITD . It had a BIN for £190 , i went to BIN but before i did someone else did ! Bad timing or what , just wondered if anyone here got it ?

How come Ti Fats Ti fat chance has got 19 votes and Ti Fat Mans has got ZERO Votes ?. They are both really nice builds and fairly similar but what makes the difference ? Or am imissing something ?

I have still got all my issues of MBUK and Mountain Biker from issues 1 to about 1997 and the odd issues of the American mag Mountain Bike Action , i've kept them this long i don't see the point in chucking them now and its amazing when you read them back the things you didn't notice or read...

you beat me to it !! you can't get better than the Rocky 4 soundtrack !

I went along to Newnham Park on the 26th sep to see the NPS final race to see what the racing was like now . I hadn't been to a race since about 1997 . I couldn't believe how much it has changed from BITD . For one the racing was all done on the Sat not the sunday , is that the norm now ? Also...

i have got a Tomac M.O.A.H which had input from doug bradbury and jonny T . you can see in the style of the frame many characteristics of manitou frames .

I have got this photo that i took at a race in about 91/92 and was used by the guys at X-lite as an R & D bike for testing out new products , i'm not sure what frame was or whether it was made up by X-lite . The forks were some prototypes and i remember Barrie Clarke used some for a while ...

I have been trying to find out about information on local races in the south west but don't seem to find anything ! i remember BITD there seemed to be one on virtually every week in Devon and Cornwall ,but now seems to be hardly any going on . There were races at Woodbury common , Ashcombe ...

this picture is so nice i would hang it on my wall !! what a backdrop and with the reflection on the water . makes you want to be there

Bradley Wiggins and Mark Cavendish have both been sucessful , i think what i read was based on what major results were held . He has been national champ 8 times , overall world cup minner 3 times , won 17 W/C races and 50 podiums , european champ 3 times and now world champ .apart from having an...

Its still most probably rideable just a few dents on the down tube !! must say it seems a bloody strong frame i think i'll give this idea a go there can't be much post left in there now , thanks for the idea .

i used to race against him in the early days at the NEMBA's and BMBF's , usually leaving me for dust . he was a bloody good XC rider before he shot to stardom in Downhill and has been at head of the pack ever since . he has the all time record of world cup wins which is 18 i think ? and i think...
