WimVDD's Scott Team Racing 1995

Another one I built to quench my nineties Scott appetite.

Pretty much the same feel as my 1993 Pro Racing but the RS Judy XC adds some comfort on rougher terrain.

Peachy’s 1984 Claud Butler Canyon

So, it’s January 1985… I’m 16 & I’ve saved some money from working all Christmas at M&S, my Stepmother has made sure I only received cash from Santa..
What’s it going to be? A brand-new Claud Butler Canyon or a 2nd hand Yamaha “Fizzie”, boots, helmet & insurance? No contest really..

Well roll on 35 years, early May and my Stepmother, now 92 succumbs to CV19.
My Brother tells me we will all be getting a small inheritance but that he’d promised Mum he’d make sure we’d do our best to spend it on something memorable.. so on the 12th of May I see that Solo is selling a complete M700 Deerhead groupset NOS/NIB… and I started thinking maybe my Canyon restoration (which was stumbling along whilst I tried to find catalogue correct parts) could possibly be that memorable thing..
I missed out on that full group set, but Solo and a few others as far away as Canada, Germany & California helped me pull this lot together, I hope you like it.
Cheers June…rest in peace

Thanks, but I’m just happy adding another flavour to the comp.... Happy Father’s Day
(Now it’s 9:45 and I’m still waiting for my sausage sandwich!)

So sorry for your loss Peachy but I’m sure your Stepmother would approve of this beautiful bike

It's worth watching that for the Bird songs alone...
