What are your project plans for 2012?

[apache]

Get myself a CNC mill, or failing that, a manual one cos I have this itch to have a bash at component building.

That's gonna have to wait til after the house move April-ish next year when I hope to be higher up the Malverns, with more sheds / workshops than the two I have now

thinking about going 'modern' as well..

Well reminded. I've got a karma KHS to build up. I'm hoping to do the whole thing for under £30. Basically want to built it for charging around cyclepaths and in town.

Last year I said...

As others have said - ride more.

But in the man-cave and in no particular order...
* Finish collecting parts and build up the pearlescent Explosif
* Rebuild the Cindercone
* Decide what to do with the AA - re-spray or leave as is...and then do it

How did I do? Ride More - Yep. Explosif - built and ridden quite a bit. Cindercone - re-built and sold on. AA - pretty much as it was.
I think a 7/10 is fair.

As for 2012.
* Ride more
* Spruce the Kilauea - rims & transmission needs some serious TLC
* Find a "new" rear wheel for the '62 Freddie Grubb Tourmalet
* Learn how to build wheels

Be interesting to see how it pans out.

Something Ti for me I think, or high class early 90's
Like to add another Rocky to my stable if I can - a Blizzard perhaps.
MUCH more riding, and try and do at least a couple of the Retrobike series rides
