Purple megalomaniac karma...

Could I write my reply as a haiku?

Blimey, I've been crap with this
Blaming work (as ever) but now I'm home with at least twenty minutes to spare... :roll:

You lot don't disappoint though do you? Quality responses all round, every one found something to tug on my heart strings, this was really just a bit of a laugh, but I'm now genuinely under pressure! :shock:

Lance; comic book late 90s Kona? Green & purple? Your 'first' bike? Love it!

Ringo; only the frame to match, subtle, like the idea. Skint, like me, empathy's a good move...

P3tester; bringing the young'un up right, with proper MTB history (always be JohnnyT and the Captain for me). They're skinny too, so that kinda makes sense for little hands...

Steve; just luck or have you heard me banging on about the build I'm just finishing (it's had it's first proper ride ) for my missus? Very, very sneaky, top marks!

BH; you made me laugh on a shitty day, cheers! They're not going on a barrow though

AngryToaster; with all those flash bits already you're not winning me over, but wait - a DiscDrive, how very Tomac! I came so close to blowing my student loan on an ex-Tomac Raleigh ti frame & DD in the first week of term, soooo close...

Orange; lonely hearts style ad, very cute

...and Chris; bringing a touch of class, top notch

So, whowhowho...

At this point I'm still torn but it's going to have to be...




























Lance's Kona!


Mostly because I think that's where they'll look most at home

Thank you all so much for making me smile/laugh out loud, what a top bunch RetroBikers are

Lance, better PM me your address quick, before I change my mind

Lance - Do these grips proud

I will do! I'll try to get some pics up progressively through the build.
