The Mercian appreciation society

Yes, that was the idea. I wanted a modern road bike, but steel, and it's worked really well (though, as I said, I think some people would disagree: it's not your classic Mercian beauty). I'll dig some out when I'm back in the city.

EDIT: I have this one, before I built it up (ie none of these bits are necessarily the ones I built it up with or in the right position etc). With thanks to Mike at push....

^^ Thats exactly the same spec as one I have being built. Im starting to day dream about it now as it should be ready in November. I'd love to see photos of yours built.

Also - did Derbyshire Mercian Ride happen and will it be repeated? I live in Notts and regularly ride around Derby and so can help with a route if needed.
