It may be time to rescue my antique mountain bike from my parent's cellar.
It's an Overbury's Peak Finder, made in Bristol in about 1984 and bought for the princely sum of £425 as far as I can remember. Its 531 All Terrain tubing, mostly Shimano Deore Staghead kit, Chrome Bullmoose bars and massive clearances.
I'm thinking a slight modification to a cruiser, as I don't want to smash it about over rough stuff. Fat tyres, fenders and racks may be the way forward. Hell, I might even treat myself to a brooks saddle with springs.
Pictures to follow...the first few may be of a very sad, cobwebby bike.
