Room for one more...?

Hi all! It' s been toooooo long since I last dropped in here to perv at all these delightful old skool beauties. Drool...

Anyhu, can anyone join in to this very-interesting-sounding Retro Rideâ„¢ on the 24th (25th?)?

Erm... just how retro must one's bike be?

 

[kingroon]

Of course mate, and welcome!

I think the Reccy Ride is this Sunday with Hilts sorting out a route, then the RBMeet is four weeks later in March..

What bike ya got? Them Purple bolts in your Avatar look retro enough

Cheers 'Roon! Wasn't sure if it was 'invite only'...

I spend a lot of time hacking on my old Merlin (Cycles of Lancashire, not, sadly, the Ti kings) Cromo ('96) but my babies are my '97 Cinder Cone (so much purple anodising it hurts to look at...) and the '95 Orange P7 (survived being driven into but not as straight as it was!)

This ride looks to be the coolest event of the YEAR!

We need photos! Put them up in the Readers' Bikes forum

Love to see the Cinder Cone with all that anodisationingness.. Purple has officially been deemed cool
