West Beers : Every Thursday @ The Lamb Brewery, W4 4PH

If it's remotely similar to a Arione, I'll have it. Got a sore bum from Cambridge ride.

Maybe saddle.. depends on the shape. Bagsie the stem too.

Won't go with Antipodean colouring!

Red and silver? Depends which one of my bikes I fit it to.
The Raleigh is without saddle and it's an Engerlund made frame..

The saddle is NOS. I removed it from a Cannondale I bought the day I got it, replaced with an Aliante. So it's never used and from 2004.

It doesn't look bad, I like the colours. It just isn't the saddle my bum prefers (not that I gave it a chance).

Did you want the veloce rear btw? I figured you might want to keep it if you have campy stuff and are training lots.

ill take the veloce der if it's free. someone told me mine's slightly bent

You haven't looked?

It's yours. Just prod me later to give it to you.

I don't have any campag geared stuff.. let Des have it.

looks straight to me...maybe very very slightly bent. it's been working fine so far fingers crossed

build your trek up with campy stuff. just to see what you're missing out on ;)

Not going to make it tonight boys. It feels like an age since I managed to make the trip.
Get drunk for me and I'll definitely see you all next week.

will do, cheers em.

Didn't get it in the end.. guy sold it to a local.
I've ridden campag. All I'm missing is carbon brake levers :)

shame... was thinking about getting there by 4:15:(
so if you see a drunk chinaman... sitting on his own with cycling shoes on... thats me

I can see a bit of a 'Who's on first' thing going on, if I get the wrong Chinaman.

Richie: "What am I doing?"
Chinaman: "Fuck knows, tubby"
Richie: "No, are you, WhatAmIDoing?!)
Chinaman: "I'm not tubby..."

:)

hehe, you coming big red??

Yep.
Won't be a late one for me though.

nozzies, see ya there man.

Nice to meet everyone tonight! Wish I could have stayed longer but have an early start tomorrow. Hope to return for another beer very soon. In the meantime, happy and safe riding... Alex

I got so lost on the way home..fucking Garmin!
After nearly ending up in a field behind a rowing club I finally found Garratt Lane and was home free
Chips were late but well received.
