The wife's old bike is finally going - probably ridden 19 times in 19 years!!! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/222047234202? ... 1555.l2649

Yeah, great day - good to meet you all, thanks for the invite. Knacked now though!

Will be there at 9 in the morning. Looking forward to meeting you all :D. Fitted new wheel bearings to the Pace yesterday. Has only needed doing for about two years. Its great, the front wheel doesn't wobble now! Still meeting on Dale Road in Welton?

Thanks Chris, I really hope to be able to make it. Mentioned it to my wife and she mumbled something about wanting me to do something but I think I can get out of that :roll: I'm in Angola at the moment, home Thursday, hangover Friday, kids Saturday so should be ok for biking Sunday!

chrisv40 - I ride my Bullit mainly, but must confess to not having done much riding the last couple of years or so due to work commitments, family, houses, being forty something, the usual. When i've been out locally we usually stay round the wood above North Ferriby on the mini downhill (if it...

I'm in Willerby, know the trails well - been riding them the past 24 years or so!

Hello everyone, just had a PM from lewis1641 inviting me over here :) . Might be able to make it for this - work away from home, coming home next Thursday but don't know whats been organised for me at the weekend. (I can do whatever I like, so long as its alright with the missus!!)

It's a metallic sticker, Rich. The headtube was bare when I got it - added this later. Here's a blurry pic, i can get you a clearer one if you want, when i get home from work (in a few weeks, unfortunately :( ). "Handmade in Yorkshire"

My 1986 Muddy Fox Courier came with an almost BMX-like short stem and riser bars!

Guess thats a "yes" then :lol: :lol:

sastusbulbas - This one had a u-brake originally, i had it changed to cantilevers with cable stops on the top tube. Hence the izumi sticker to hide the transition from original paint to new, 'cos that part of the red was resprayed - by me :roll: I "skipped" my first mountain bike about 10...

1988 Stumpjumper - had it from new. Bought as a frame only from John Stevenson at Two Wheels Good in Leeds, if anyone remembers it. Still got most the bits i think.

Nope, completely original. There are a few dings and scrapes when you look close up and the seat tube has a small split just below the collar, but its been there as long as i can remember and not got any worse. I spoke to Duncan McDonald, who built it, years ago about getting it repaired and...

Already posted it a while ago. Think i'm No. 26. :)

Had this since '92 and still think its the business :D. Bought it as a 6 month old shop ex-demo bike. This is in its lastest incarnation - still ride it as much as poss. Will try to find some old "Renthal's and RC35's" pics to post.

Here's number 99. RC200 F1 serial no. RC038206. God knows what the 06 part signifies, looks like its been added on after. Bought the frame as a six month old ex-demonstrator from Freetown Sports in Hull in '92. Still fun to ride - been out on it today :)

Hello Everyone :D Stumbled across this site yesterday whilst trying to find picture of a Mantis Flying V - now that was some machine in its time. Anyway, it was nice to find such a big following of older bikes. I've been mountain biking officially since 1986, though was building up my own...
