Sorry for the lateness of this, crazy workload recently but yup that was me on stubborn girl. Hit me up if you guys are ever about. If my bike aint playing up I'll be on a ride ;)
Where abouts in cov are you guys riding from, I'm a stones throw from the uni so would be on riding once I get my rear wheel to corporate (flipping tubular -_-)
Haha sounds like you got yourself a future gold mine , the country needs more classics 😉 haha they remind us that soul can't be swapped out for weight reduction
I tried my hand at converting an old Raleigh 5 speed racer last week for a friend who destroyed the gearing, between trying to get the chain tension right on the rear dropouts and spoking the rear wheel I gave up.
Conversions are beauts though,bringing old gals to life
Shouts out to the guy with the forest green leader 725 I passed racing to lectures on campus...restoring my faith that Fixed Gear in Coventry isn't dead.
Haha true enough they have their cannock Chase but most riders don't live there. we unfortunately drew probably the shortest of the shortest straws for that
Definitely gonna watch out for fixtures, haven't seen the obelix so would be well up for it. I have two coaster brake bikes at my place in Coventry as well so could probably get another 2 people to tag along to get the numbers up.
Do you know when the speedway starts up again? Would be cool to check it out, but give me a shout when your back on your stead hopefully we can get a group together.
