Last night’s ride turned into retrobike heaven!!!

[Emoco]

That's actually his bike? Seems such a shame to keep it up there.

Does anyone know what happened to Jason's M2?

 

[tintin40]

he's got more stem spacers than me... :shock:

Why have you got so many spacers Wu :? There are less spaces in the picture of the bike with the guy with one leg in the air. It's better to ride with both legs on the pedals :roll:

This is not a hoax, the lad was best mates with JMC (hence why Jim give him the bike!) and why would I bother, I've got much better things to do with my time.

A bike belonging to one of the Icons of our sport, a dead icon at that. Given to a lost son's friend by a proud father

Mmmm, what shall I do with it, how should I honour my old friend?

I know- I'll sling it in the loft and pile it up with crap!

Respect!


There really should be a 'Retrobike Society for the Protection of Bikes' for people like that

Shocked :cry:

 

[lewis1641]

to be fair though you dont know the guy or how he was affected by his death. perhaps he cant bear to walk past it on a daily basis nor does he want to part with it

 

[Tulstar]

Agree with DR S - That bike needs to be shown, not hidden away!

 

[Neil G]

Agree with most, needs to be cracked out and ridden once in a while

Or maybe 'this was my best friends bike and I'd like it to remain the same as when he was alive'

It's a gorgeous looking machine for sure but given it's history I think I'd keep it somewhere safe and away from the possibility of theft.

My bikes go into the loft when we go on holiday ,that way if we are broken into the there's little/no chance of burglars climbing up there.

Should be in the Retrobike Museum.
