[Mike Muz]

It's difficult to know where to start, road? cyclocross?MTB? And I have gathered quite a few now but here goes.

Mike Muz's 1998/9 (not sure which) Bianchi X34, Dedacciai steel frame, with full XTR, 50cm 3t bars and ceramic rims . Apologies for no build thread.

How I imagine getting on this (really ace) bike

I usually climb up a tree and drop down onto it!
Raced at Mayhem when you went in 2019. Didn't you notice I parked next to the woods?

@Mrs GIGFY Pendleton Dalby. Newest addition to my stable, bought 2nd hand with no signs of use. The teenage daughter rode it only once! It will see some mileage now.

No build thread. Changed brake levers to Avids because Pendleton have a bad habit of fitting the wrong cable pull levers.

Mikey08's 2005 Trek Fuel Team Issue - restomod.

This one took about 2 years of gathering parts and planning, then building. It was a damaged frame when It came to me so i had to learn how to repair carbon and also modified the frame to take a modern dropper post and re did the cable guides. Lots of hard work in this including a DIY custom paint job. After much hard work and stress she came out good i think
