Just to inform my fellow Bomo-ers - I've completed my first singlespeed project bike, so if you spot a haggered, red, 1983 Raleigh Ace with a scared-looking bloke on it, that'll be me! Took her out for the first time today and had my first experience of throwing a chain, heading down towards the Fiveways pub in Charminster! Lost one of my nine lives, a few inches of rubber off my shoes, and a clean pair of pants, but at least I'm in one piece.
