Hi everyone.
I'm starting at Uni next month and my main way of travelling about is definitely going to be by bike.
I have a freeride mountainbike but that will, for the most part, stay locked up at the halls except for when I go out on rides.
The rest of the time commuting about and just for general riding I have dug out my Dad's old road bike from the 80's
I'm good at fixing mountainbikes but recognise I am out of my depth with this project and I'm sure people will have loads of helpful tips to get it up to a good standard whilst still looking for want of a better phrase, like a piece of crap that noone would nick.
