BTW eck do you want me to post you back those brake bosses or get them at glasgow?

If there's anything you need taking through to the big fella, bring them tomorrow. Sounds like good news on the job front too. Roll on the morn, touch wood weather forecast looks alright.

Actually, popping through after the Drum tomorrow might no be a bad idea - I'll give you a phone in the afternoon and let you know.

good day bad day

Up early and of to sunny drumlanrig and some fine riding with a few of macretro's finest Yo was great and good shakedown a success.

Collected a rather lovely set of hugi wheels froma chap in glasgow and got some of the last bits delivered to finish the uni-bomber sometime before xmas

Also had to go and pick up a package which turned out to be my bargain orange frame so pretty much a perfect day, until I picked the frame up and heard the thing sound like a shaker with the tiny bits of rust inside Bottom bracket looks pretty bad to, will post some pictures to see what your thoughts are but this might well be wall art- shame really as it is the right size

Sheldon has some words of encouragement:

Not that I know much about these things, but it's hard to imagine a frame rusting to the point of structural weakness.

I dropped the GT and the other gear off at Big Ecks, he wasn't in but he arrived just as I was making my getaway. I pokled the STX-RC Vs from the Kaiser Karma bag :twisted:

Any word from Kaiser btw? Unusually quiet tonight.
