Hi guys just been on to check out what the hell I was on about last night, the frame thats for sale is a Haro 1991 ??????? looks odd buy nearly new

Good ride last night, even though I picked up some one elses legs before I left the house, hate it when that happens :?

Buy it, buy it, buy it, buy it.............

It looks fantastic!

what do you think to the Haro? and is that one yours?

Not mine - never had an e-stay bike. Really have no idea what they're like. I don't think they are particularly special, but they look different and that's a talking point

More info on the Haro Extreme here:

Yep, watching it.
Did you see the splatterpaint Cindercone that went for £35 on ebay :shock:

 

[orange71]

ah it was you after the stem - couldn't remember!

no - don't tend to watch Konas I'll be honest!

we need to set the next month's worth of evening/night rides BTW. We'll discuss when we next meet.

That should take you up until May, whats the plan with the 'Three tribes' ride? Looking to arrange my Bank holiday weekend.

Plans are being made in the background - I can't make it unfortunately, but rc200ti as the deputy will be doing the route It's on the 1st May anyway.

In regard to the night rides, maybe we could set venues as well now that it will be getting light to attract all those riders coming out of hibernation

 

[orange71]

yep good idea. Pines/Charnwood/Ticknall/what else?

How about a longer evening ride starting at 7pm in the south Peak, say, finishing when it finishes?

Sounds like fun.
