Hi All,
Just a quick message to introduce myself.
Basically stumbled upon this site a couple of months back and it bought it all flooding back to me !!
Years ago I used to ride a lot, but turned 17 bought a car and hardly rode again, now all grown up with kids.
Was amazed that soooo many people have a thing for these old bikes!! I used to be a Marin lover back in the days, had a whole string of them Muirwoods, Pine Mountain, Palisades. Just gutted I sold them all
Still When I saw this site I said to myself I gotta have one !!
Since then I visited the inlaws to find out my wife has a immaculate Muddy Fox Monarch Team (in purple !!) It even has the original Muddy Fox suspension forks. I have now managed to pursuade her to let me have it
I have also bought a GT Backwoods fitted with RoxShox Indy C's that requires a lot of work, basically the muppet before me stripped all the original paint off and it is now just plain aluminum, but I have a neighbour who is a car painter so will hopefully soon have nice bike.
I will get round to posting some photos on here at somepoint, then you can tell me if my Muddy Foxx comes into the catergory of Retro !!
Thanks
