Australian Retro Roll Call

[Slow6]

Inspired by Seans welcome thread.
http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=108503
How many of us are lurking these hallways and what states are we in?

Maybe we could scrape together enough for a ride / get together / trade bits.. whatever?

edit: should have said, Vic here, Castlemaine area. Pretty good selection of local trails.

Hellos from Hobart been riding/racing since '92. Now i'm just slow and fat

 

[The Ken]

didn't you miss out ACT ? I only care because when I visit that is the place I am likely to spend most of my time, my sister lives there

 

[Slow6]

I swear I meant nothing by it

It's simply a good example the mental capacity of a father of two "why daddy, why" aged children :?

Can't seem to find an edit button for the poll.. I'll pm the nearest mod and see if he wouldn't mind setting it straight for me.

edit: Thanks john

Will have to remember about this thread

NSW

Well I am from NSW but have been living in the far north of Scotland for a couple of years.
I came from a drought area back home to the west coast of Scotland, where it always rains.
I asked a local kid if it ever stops raining? he said 'how should I know I'm only five' :shock:

I moved from Adelaide to the GoldCoast 20 years ago for Kayaking and never went back
I Have a retro roadie(or2) at the moment in an SLX Merckx/DA but had a 91 ish Fisher ProCaliber (prestige steel/Manitou 1/ XC pro) stolen a few years ago :evil:
I still have a full rigid Avanti MTB and a full susp Jamis in the garage (wife hates all the bikes )
Actually found an unused 130 mm Answer ATAC welded Ahead stem in the box of bits the other day !!
