Retro plans for 2013.

[MiniNinjaRob]

1. Build bikes I find interesting, probably saving more unloved mid-range stuff from the tip.......

2. Make every National ride in 2013, and maybe MM as wel.... :? :? :?

 

[shinobi]

1. Loose enough weight to be able to actually ride the bikes i have

2. look out for my second project , rigid steel spesh or kona ?

3 Check out my local tip to see what happens with bikes they get in

Same plans like the last few years and the next years.

Find the last missing parts for my Eldridge at a bargain price.
Visit the UK and MM with this bike and meet all of you there that helped me along my way.

Someday this will happen! Hopefully i'm not too old and my body not too weak by then to ride.

All depends on finances I guess but hey 2013 can't possibly be as awful as 2012.....can it ? :shock:

Lots more national rides
Lots less punctures

Rebuild the '92 Blizzard with a new top tube
Rebuild the '92 Team Marin with Nickel plate finish as a Team Issue
Fix the shed roof ! Maybe even build a bigger shed

- Get Fit
- Ride More
- Do the Brecon Gap route in under my current best time of 2h 50m. Hence referral to top point...!
- Complete commuter build in Jan (92 Diamondback)
- Find a Ridgeback 601SIS to restore (My first proper new MTB back in 89)
- Commute at least 3 days a week by bike (16 mile round trip)
- Move to a larger house, not enough bike space where I am...

Hmmmmmm.........

1) DON'T buy any more bikes (yeah, right).

2) rebuild/tune-up the RM Hammer I picked up for the ex so she has a ride at the start of the season.

2) finish the Avalanche drop-bar project..

3) finish polishing the parts and put the final touches on the Ritchey

4) Find some wider bars and tri-colour 600 levers for the Cramerotti.

6) Pry the NOS Sugino 700c disc wheel kit out of the LBS owner's hands and build it for the Pinarello.

7) Rebuild the Kuster off the THS-1 so I can put the Vanilla back on the Foes.

8 ) rebuild the Manitou 1 on the Cinder Cone and try and find some Suntour hubbed wheels for it to replace the mismatched 732 wheels on it now.

9) Put all the Mountain LX stuff back on the Fire Mountain.


And finally.......

SELL OFF SOME OF THE PILE OF ACCUMULATED NOS STUFF ACQUIRED OVER THE YEARS. Daddy needs another KTM.

Get rid of all non essential bike parts and projects

Get out on the complete bikes I have and get muddy and actually enjoy what I have instead of wanting bigger and better bikes

I've got two Kilis needing finished. One only needs the finishing touches while the other needs everything!! Though I think I now have most of the parts for this.

Still two more Kilis on the shopping list, but need some more space before I buy any more bikes.

I've really enjoyed my riding this year so hope to carry this on to next year. I have the variety in the bike shed to keep things fresh so no excuses.

 

[clockworkgazz]

nothing planned at all- but you never can tell and agree riding more is on the list.

 

[mooster]

I'm thinking of building up an 89 kili flyer comp, think I've got most of the parts to do it, just need the frame forks post saddle stem bars..not many around now tho...
