    For Sale H. R. Morris complete road bike ( a one off )

    Fortunately, Dick Morris' command of French spelling was a little better cf. his labour of love: 'sans pareil' vs 'sans pereil' ! Lovely frame. GLWS.

    Tub puncture repair.

    I used Garry twice for repairs, visiting his home as well as using the postal service: excellent job done so sorry to see that he stopped about 2 years ago, and he used to sell ex-pro Conti tubulars at a decent price too!

    Aende on ebay

    Sure, most bikes are sold for less than asking price, and having "offers" option helps a true market value to be established. Whilst a Colnago is generally deemed desirable (by reputation or is it really superior?), many of its models are actually more common than equivalents from lesser known...

    Aende on ebay

    When did pedestrians forget the Highway Code?

    Out on the bike in the Cheshire countryside several times over the last couple of weeks. Getting fed-up with c 70% of pedestrians who walk on the left hand side i.e. with their backs to oncoming traffic.

    In anticipation of the New Year and to get me readying my steel road bikes for the Spring I thought I'd share them here, adding one a week for the next 8 or so weeks, to give me time to clean, oil and adjust etc. I've been building since my late 30's and now approaching my late 50s and still...
