Are you tempted by a new Holdsworth like the ones on the roof rack?? Look cracking.
 
Re:

I have been tempted before to be honest... but mine probably cost half the price to build and I definitely know what I would prefer...If money was no object I would definitely have it in my collection though.
 
Re:

You would need a pair of flared trousers to go with the Cortina :facepalm: :cool:

Very Strong Month . Loads of cracking machines

Can i nominate my Holdsworth Super Mistral 1967

I have properly finished this bike this year just before Eroica and I am very proud of it. I had put this on a while back (I think a year ago) but for some reason the rBoTM for that month disapeared before the vote. I built this and restored this from the ground up, put it up for sale, got stolen, bought it back and decided it was a keeper. I have done 100s of miles on it including 2 3-day cycling trips, Eroica, daily commutes and it has never skipped a beat. Love it!! :)
