Quick update. The blue build has been great over the last couple of months now the saddle has been moved back. Love the cambium after the initial ass-hurt stage. Struggling to get on with the bars as I like the classic drops where you can sit you hands on a truly flat area.
The grey Mercian was hanging around waiting to get resprayed so I decided to Hammerite paint it in the meantime in a lighter shade of grey. Actually doesn't look to bad for now. I will build up as a tourer with my front and rear rack.
Yesterday I picked up a new bike kindly from @jgadd - thanks! The yellow Bob Jackson below. Have wanted a Jackson for a while and the paint scheme is so much fun. So far I have stripped it down. I'd like to put a different fork on it, the other example I saw has a red fork which works really well. The trispoke is for now on the blue bike. Never had anything Dura-Ace before, it's lovely. Have to have a think what will be done with it and will put up some recent pictures soon.
