rBoTM February 2025 - Open Month - Entries now Open!!!!

[Jamiedyer]

Welcome to RBotM February 2025!
We will kick off the year on an Open Month meaning anything retro, road and belonging to a member is good to enter.
The only fine print being that any previous open month winning bike is excluded

So with the weather getting warmer here in the north and people getting back out on their bikes, there has never been a better time for taking a couple of photos, add a couple of sentences explaining your entry and bang! you're in.
After a great year last year and some amazing machines coming onboard I am really looking forward to seeing what enters this year.
Thanks

Jamie

I may as well get things started this month with my latest build, this 1983 Mercian Olympic. I bought the frameset from someone who grew up near Mercian Cycles, and he had bought it locally himself. I've taken it a little further North, but it's not gone too far from home. It's my retro autumn/spring/nice winter days ride.

The build thread is here.

My 1964 Carlton Flyer build.

…if Prince had ever owned a vintage road bike, it surely would have been this one

That Carlton is amazing.

Wrong forum I’m afraid - you want the MTB side…
