Have you read "It's all about the bike" by Robert Penn ?

Rourke gets a small mention

Somewhere on youtube, there's the full version of the documentary. Confusingly its not called 'Its all about the bike' but a title it was given earlier.

Never quite understood the trip to the USA for his wheels though.

I suspect it helps the programme makers sell the programme to American TV channels.

Watch any BBC factual type programme and probably there will be an American expert/academic on it.

Arrrgh I have a crisis.

I don't like pale green stuff.

Years ago a company director I worked for turned up in a new car. Very pale metallic green with beige upholstery. Goddam nearly puked.

Last year I get a Flying Scot given to me - yep pale metallic green



Now you show us this :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

It is luvverly though

The odd thing is I've just sold my Harry Hall which is almost the same colour! I'm kind of 50/50 with the colour, if it had been pale blue metallic, it would have been perfect

I have to mention that any image of Maggie Thatcher I see turns me puke green

No problem Robbied196 , I watched it and it is a really cool documentary.

Lovely stuff - I have a near identical track Rourke. Same pale, metallic green. Lovely bike, sadly under-used given my location in the country. I have added a front brake, so I can use it on the lower level stuff.
