My work has just signed a group of us up for a challenge. Great stuff

My company has just signed up to do a challenge with these guys, thought I might share it with you all. A great way get people at work cycling. Also get to ride with Olympic & Pro riders.

Hmm. 2 threads?

You are CA and I claim my £5.

Balki, send the heavies out.

...by the way, we won't tell you how to run your business!

They always get merged in the end (except the dupes I make), but he really does appear to not be CA, just genuinely excited by it.

To be fair though, if you've ever done a team building away day you'll understand why a cycling one looks so good.

I'm quite lucky to never have been corporate enough to have to do much in the way of that...
My very first grown-up business meeting ever was only last week.
I wish I'd worn a suit.

It duplicated because my computer was on go slow and I thought it had not been uploaded. No I am not Corporate Ascents. Just excited about it - if your work were paying for you and a group to cycle Ventoux - you would be as well me thinks.

We have done the group hugs rubbish before, this might actually be something that works and is something I've always wanted to do...

My friend posted on my behalf info detailing my Carlton bikes, however it would seem that for some reason that post has decended in to chaos regarding a donation.

I have sold one bike (the white one), I have 8 other Carltons, one stunning Hurcules and an Elswick Hopper. I shall post pictures and details later of 2 others plus hopefully the Hurcules. I will donate to the forum when I sell. I don't have a paypal account but have applied for one (which is why my friend was selling them in the first place).

I have had numerous contacts regarding the bikes - please email me again if you are interested.

Hope this is clear.

Have you got full details of the bikes ?

Sizes and components would be useful, plus photos of each and prices.

Ta

Yes - I will get 2 out and list them both with photos and details etc. I am just pottering around now sorting it out with a cup of tea on the go.

Here is a stunner, I need to clean it up but have a look at the photos.

It is a Hurcles (from 50's I think) it has a little brass coloured nossle to fill oil into bb - so its old.

Comes with Brookes B17 Saddle

Campag Seat post

Stem is british but i need to clean it to see who made it

bars are raleigh

The only newish things are the wheels - french made.

Size

TT - 23"

The chain ring is british made could be williams

Make me a sensible offer and I will sell this bike to you.

Yes, you've advertised this once already!

I'm starting to think that you're actually Highland Pro too...

More details and a price is a good idea.

No I am not Highland pro, I advertised this without a prefix so I could not find it so here it is.

Should you wish to call me my mob is 07792684497

More details - what else is there to say....

Price - make me an offer - what do you think it is worth....

details:
wheel size
fixed or free
how many ring/cog teeth,
frame serial no.
paint condition
bottom bracket/head condition
OLN size

size CTC - CTT cm's seat and top.

My guess is its worth about £150

Frame is marked HS 38

700C Wheels
The paint hs been removed - the bike needs a polish
52 tooth
Freewheel
BB/Head seem fine to me - I am not an expert on old bikes though I muist stress.
