wow thanks ZZ your a prince, go out on her the morra and see if it is your bag, chap said she could do with a light service but is pretty ready to go so you should be safe.
I have sold the pug to a chap in work velo, so sticking to just one of the thin tire evil machines, but the history of the brand and the natty colours caught my eye rather.
Was planning on just using her as an occasional work bike TK and for the macretro road ride whenever that happens but I have already been sniffing around in the london fixie forum for a matching suntour superbe rear mech and brake levers (I am A.R. 'tis true) and either Kaiser's rolls (hint hint ) or a charge bucket might be in order, any suggestions on colour for saddle and tape? No pink ZZ :twisted:
big smile on my puss and off to bed

Just back from a couple of hours round the Glenifer Braes, found
a loop at the top and bottom with a link bit in the middle, about
three-four miles in total i think, plenty of climbing though.
Highlight is a very steep tricky drop, it's tricky as it's narrow, slidy
and has a clump of earth/grass to steer round half way down, tried
it over and over again but gave up when i ripped my shorts and
nearly ruptured my baws
I will conquer it though :twisted:

Fitted K&N air filter and custom ignition advance device, home made by OC member and said to give a crisp 5 - 8bhp gain :xmas-big-grin: Still looking for s@xy affordable aftermarket exhaust for increased attraction to the opposite gender.
