Ricky Feather x John Smedley custom build

That is quite simply the most beautiful bike I have seen in a very long while.

please not mudguards

Brakless and no braze-ons for mudguards.

Can't be that.

Probably give it away in a competition... hence slacker commuter geometry. You'd only need to drill the forks.

I was wondering if it might come with a second, drilled fork for road use and the track fork has to match that length to maintain the geometry. I'm not sure on the legality of giving away a non-road legal bike as a competition prize.

They ain't track tyres either. ;)

Done- I better win this (too small for me) bike now.

good luck to you!

So it's not possible to enter the competition if you're not on Facebook?

I am not on FB but joined the mailing list and got a prompt that said good luck in the Competition. So it looked to me that alone was enough. But I at first had same thought you did.

so just need to like on face book
can i also enter in the shop ?
and set up some false facebook id's and enter more times on line
then get a friend to enter in the shop on my behalf
then wear a wig and a false nose and enter once again in the shop

Entered, with the FB pseudonym I have to have for work.

There was a Rapha competition that was tied to FB as well, wasn't there?

I've been lusting over this bike in the window display for days now. It's truly stunning and makes me want it more than anything I've ever seen. So simple yet so beautiful.

Can't say I see anything I don't like on it.

As for John Smedley, I'm always gutted I can't wear wool jerseys or cardigans, too itchy. I have some of their summer cotton knitwear from years ago and always go hunting for more when it's on sale.

Grass track? Kit me out in some merino goodness and I'll race it on the grass circuits for you! Can't say fairer than that

competition terms amended, no facebook entry necessary or you can enter in store with the postcards :)

Entered. I waaaaaaaaaaaaant.

Done! Also got some socks, polo and a jumper on order.

Lordy are you an FB opt-out like me??

Spot-on

:-)

Ummm,
Think I enetred here:
http://www.johnsmedley.com/uk/representinggreatbritain/competition
BUT after the form is submitted there is no acknowledgment so I have no idea whether I have entered or not.

Anyone else had that problem??

should get the gold box at the top when it goes through like this...

Can you just check I'm on the list?

Easiest way of doing this is to open the list, delete all the names, then add mine.

Saves all that annoying scrolling down.

After that you can just close the contest, to avoid messing up your nice new list.

Haha rep

Brilliant!
Sorry, but what is the budget for the project?

Entered!

I am, as are many on here.

And once you've submitted your details a bar appears at the top of the screen confirming it.

Of course, if you're busy staring lustily at the bike you might miss it.

Bugger.

There was me hoping I'd win as soon as next week.
