  • Guess they couldn't sell the Spinergy. Its been hanging there for 15 years.

  • It did have cobwebs on it!

  • Illy, did you manage to get a snap of Geert-Jan Jonkman's rims?

    They were gorgeous.

  • Ha! It's only Hanka Kupfernagel.

    She came forth.

    ......only to come fourth.

  • Illy, did you manage to get a snap of Geert-Jan Jonkman's rims?

    Nope, but they were these I think!

  • Cheers Illy. They were very pretty and would really be set off nicely on a fluro pink bike.

    But Winston says they are not good for acceleration

    and that was certainly true in Jonkman's case. Perhaps I need more acceleration...

    ...or then again, I am probably better focusing on aesthetics.

    Dear Santa...

  • ......only to come fourth.

    Oliver in spelling mistaik shocker!

  • Zed

    Sadly I think it was another "schun" [Schick-Pun]

    I'm not perfick. :)

    If you scan my posts carefully, you will find quite a few typos that I haven't noticed.

    it's on my "to do" list.

    they are not very stiff, and I'm guessing Jonkman weighs significantly less than any of the Englishmen involved in this discussion...

    What? Even Clive?

  • it's on my "to do" list.

    You know, you can take one post at a time. There are a few long ones, but only 9,000-odd altogether. :)

  • last lap of cross here: http://www.sporza.be/cm/sporza/videozone/MG_sportnieuws/MG_wielrennen/1.642494

    Makes me want to do cross next year...

  • You should Matt. It's good fun (if a bit muddy).

  • Yeah I think a nice 80s frame, like a Vitus with a nice set of tubular wheels and a medium quality groupset would be a very nice cross bike for next year. oooh so tempting.

  • You know, you can take one post at a time. There are a few long ones, but only 9,000 odd altogether. :)

    "Odd" being the operative word.

  • "Odd" being the operative word.

    Well done, Clive, you spotted the deliberate mistake. :)

  • whooo-hooo! Clive, you might have to buy those just to save M from himself.

    On second thoughts...he has enough wheels...me less so...maybe there'll be a shamal or two under the tree this year ;)

  • stelle, go for it. I cannot access e-bay from the office and am having precious little time at home it seems. How much are they going for?

  • Bugger. Too late -went for £425

  • Guess they couldn't sell the Spinergy. Its been hanging there for 15 years.

    Thats because its a mountain bike one!
