any special breeding methods...? yaks in yemen? i guess the elusive 'goose drove him to his odd self-imposed exile?

long-shot, but are you still looking? i have one f/f in blue.

Re: hey adrian, great see you got that nasty surprise sorted and the toad is on the path to ridable glory! i look forward to seeing the progress of the build. i know you will do it justice! ;o)

hi there racer x, by any chance, do you still have a pair of the white bullseye cranks decals? i need them like meth! or close to it. please let me know either way. i'm a buyer. ;o)

hi there, i just saw your ad here and i was wonderint if you still had the ritchey megabits was 1.7 tires available? please let me know and hopefully, if you have them, we can make it work. i can imagine shipping will be a big cost, as i'm near vancouver, canada! that will likely be a big...

Re: it's that time already! times flies when you're having fun. even when you're not. i hope to have a couple bikes at the show and barring medical issues, i'll be there! should be a good year with the titanium theme. something a little different. hopefully, there will be a good cross...

yes, david warburton, aka 'vintageman'. he got yellow 'climbax' decals from me that morning, but had to leave early for some other commitment.

Re: i thought it was an excellent show, and i'm not just saying that because of the 'prize'. there was possibly one of the best assemblies of high-caliber bikes from a wide range of places as i've ever seen. great to see new faces as well as the 'usual suspects'. the weather was perfect and...

Re: only a couple days away and i'm finally ready with my entries- loose ends (and cables) all tied up. i'm looking forward to this one as i missed last year's event due to health issues. i had plenty of highly-appreciated help from many of the local 'players' and it turned out great. the...

Re: bump here. in 'tribute' to paul's recent run and current offering of his delightful fillet-brazed stems which feature the early design that featured his 'ICR'(internal cable routing). there is a new thread showing pictures of his handiwork and the quality, and attention to detail he is...

Re: i still haven't picked up the two i ordered yet. hoping to in the next couple days- i'm drooling to hold them in my grubby paws! ;o) FYI, i do have the 'brodie' stems decals in all 8 colours paul offered back in the day when i bought the last of his supply. they are reproduced with...

maybe a contingent from the u.k./europe should charter a plane and fill that cargo bay bike prime rides!! remember, you only live once. go take in the rest of vancouver, zip up to whistler/blacomb where's there's still plenty of snow and enjoy what seems to be turning into a typical bc spring...

Re: indeed, that time of the year again and harald and roy will be hard at it, making ready for yet another banner year for celebrating all mountain bikes- vintage!! being the 25th annual, i am hoping to see many new faces as well as the usual suspects, who i all hope, are pulling out all...

Re: good one, roy! pain is tolerable, but guts are still 'eruptive'. always something...

Re: Hey vanisle, the word i got from paul some years ago by now is the last number for his hand-built frames from that era is 4261, just like roy mentioned. there have been special orders through brodie bikes and paul's special projects(i.e. whippet, giraffe bike and other frames built for the...

Re: hey roy, do you know if harald has any posters made up yet, or is he waiting for details/additions, etc? should be a great variety of bikes this year!

Re: yes, absolutely, roy. thanks for the wake up call/reminder at how quickly the day approaches. the long, snowy winter has indeed kept the thoughts of vintage bikes and the show seemingly so far away, yet here we are only 2 short months away! i definitely hope to make up for my absence...

Re: super cool fun time! ;o) keeps you busy, right? half the fun is searching for bikes and parts and the other half is tinkering/building. of course the last but not least half is riding! wait a minute?

Re: that's cool! cool to see you seem to be a fan of canadian bikeware. yah, you'd love the riding up here, but not so much the weather if you're used to so. cal. sun/heat. everything else more than makes up for the weather, though. so is it just coincidence you have a bunch of cromag...

Re: are you, by chance, a canadian ex-pat? there's definitely a canadian theme in your collection and with the rockys and cro-mag parts use- not typical for someone in/from cali. rep on 'early' norcos might not be stellar to handmade rocky or brodies, let alone konas, but they're probably...
