Anything in gorgeous baby blue????

DIB DIB DIBAROOS. This is all going to end in fisticuffs and tears.

If anyone posts a fucking thread like this again they should be fucking kneecapped.

FFS, it's like Angelina Jolie covered in chocolate, holding a vibrating banana and saying, "You can look, but you can't touch..."

wank, wank, wank, wank ,wank and fuckin' WANK!!!

Looking at the number of items here and being familiar with how much space they take up i've come to the conclusion that Jim lives in a converted cinema!

Or converted cathedral...

would be appropriate given that most of the lfgss congregation are praying they get a chance to buy this stuff :)

has anyone actually seen if these bikes exist??

best hoax thread ever !
why would 1 person want so many bikes ! it's not like he can ride them all at the same time

Still waiting for the call although i have had a pm back.If i was sorting this lot,measuring etc it would take a while so i'm keeping fingers crossed at the mo....

I have 15 complete and about 12 frames waiting their turn,i know a few folks in the vcc that make my collection look like i'm not really trying so yes,it's entirely possible.Does require an understanding spouse/divorce though !

This last bit is the sticking point....

My options are: become a small time bicycle dealer, or have a family life.

^this.

Oxford not far from Glouster.......wishdibs nice wheel set[s] & cranks, saddle[s]

I had a call from Jim last night. He sounds like he's a bit overwhelmed by all the attention. He's doing his best to reply to everyone in order whilst going through all his goodies.
I reckon he'd have a few stories to tell about his time in the saddle too.

^best news i've had all day!^

This is proper n+1 stuff.

i'm going to 3rd dibs the ellis briggs which i was the first to dibs, just to be safe. hoping it's a 58cm... but maybe even if it's not.

alright mate,, how much for everything?

Yeah same I spoke to Jim, he came across as a good guy with a big task at hand so please be patient.

Unfortunately sounds like the frame I was after won't fit, but ah well.

If amongst all these bikes / frames you've got anything size 54 (21 1/4 or 1/2), drop me a line. Cheers.

If there were enough bikes, I could organize a van on Saturday for a small fee and bring back what's needed to London. Just an idea.

Just looked into this.

Either we rent a van and drive up on Saturday.

Alternately I can have a van/lorry collect from Gloucester at any time, and bring back all the frames to my warehouse in Southall, where I could have them stocked for up to a week (space is tight in there), or depending on numbers, I can stock these at my flat/porter's lodge for a couple of days.

You just about nailed it Gerald.

wow. just wow.

Gloucestershire is lovely this time of year, isn't it?
