Some great pics here, thanks :)

Home now, fire lit :) Cheers for the ride guys.

We have snow here, but then again I'm on top of a hill! About an inch and still falling. See you all soon :)

Snow will be fine :) As long as the road to Settle is clear I'll still be there.

Its cold here, at 1300ft, but no snow and 50-60miles south. I'll be there, not on the Sintesi to trest it as planned as Parcel FARCE are a bunch of lieing arseholes! So I'll be on the Kona :)

As far as I knew the Hale Bopp was a 1997 only bike? I'm not sure of the exact year. I did mail Sintesi mainly asking about getting a spare rear mech hanger - but no reply. Cranks - kept with 9 speed, but parcel farce haven't delivered them, the M900 are being left on the Kona. Unless I can...

More progress, and I'm afraid more modern. Brakes now working, fresh fluid but old pads. Once the cranks and BB arrive and get fitted everything else will be fitable (pedals, front mech, chain) and I'll be able to test it. Suspect terst Friday, and then go on the retrokbike ride Sat -...

Was made by a local builder, Roger Haydock, of Henry Gregson Cycles.

I'm mainly in Todmorden :)

Still aiming to be there, hoping to have the Sintesi ready but if not I'll be on the Kona :) May bring some mates, on moderns.... :oops:

I'm not sure what that means :lol: 5 hole type for ~94 LX if that helps.

in reasonable condition - thanks :) What Have You?

If anybody has a 36T 104 BCD middle ring is reasonable nick they want to bring along and sell me feel free :) New chain and cassette arrived, not sure if I'll get them fitted tonight... but fitted new elastomers in the Pace forks ready! Tested last night round Gisburn - much better :)

Aiming to be there :) Since Thetford the Kona has had XTR chainset to replace LX with worn middle ring (I need a middle ring for that) also XT SPD's rather than DX SPD's New rear mech hanger and XT mech, inner and outer cables to replace failed LX mech & hanger that failed on a night...

Had this built for me when I was 15(?) Its been round Europe as far as the Pyrenees and even Northern Portugal. I wanted to get a road bike back on the road to get some miles in my legs, maybe to work and back (30 mile each way) as I've entered some long, hard mountain bike events (Isle of...

Well the HOPE BB I wanted to use feels as rough, so will have to find a new plan for that, maybe steal a royce from one of the cyclocross bikes. Still havent sorted out which chainset I'm going to use. Choices are XTR M900 175mm with Pace 26 and 48 rings, and some other fancy middle ring...

Entered now there's ~1452/1700 entries taken now, need to sort time off work and travel/accom now :twisted:

Shit, no I just thought sometime early this month would be fine!
