The number on the seat tube is not the serial number but the date of production - 1293 refers to December 1993. I have a recently acquired Record - numbered 1088 which would make it October 1988. Numbers under the BB usually refer to seat tube sizing amongst other things.

-which includes some interesting info on the early forks!

Agreed with talboy.

@Enabler - 54cm is probably too small for somebody 6ft; 56/57cm would be nearer the mark.

pm'd on saddle

Done - do we get to see the results?

She's pulling....a tooth out.

BTW - are those Rapha fixed shorts that he's wearing?

+1 for Yasar Halim - the best bakers in London!

Big thanks to Sam for putting this together and to all for making it such a brilliant day.

Love the pics, Marco!

I bought a Uniqlo full-zip merino top a few weeks back for £24.99 - lovely quality and perfect for cycling.

Some items on the website labelled as merino are not, though. For example, the full zip 'jacqard' is not even 100% wool (it's 70/30 mix); having said that, it is still excellent quality and worth the money.

Uniqlo has already put 'sale' prices on some of it's autumn season goods!

Rob removed the old knackered cotter pins from my Freddie Grubb - he has both the expertise and the tool (although it might actually belong to Eric Deeks); replaced with pins bought from Two Wheels Good in Stoke Newington if I remember correctly.

Like Edmundro, I don't put the bike through heavy usage, but they have worked a treat since replacement about three months ago.

MA3K - many thanks for organising this; saw a lot of interesting parts of London I'd never seen before.

Sorry I couldn't stay for final drinks pub - I imagine you are all enjoying a pint or two while I'm writing this!

Great day out cycling with lovely people!

Agreed with Nikolai - I usually pass through Victoria station once or twice a week (with bike). It's frighteningly easy to access the platforms - in and out - without a ticket (as I did last week after leaving my helmet on the train).

Get an early start - you'll enjoy the ride even more.

Big thanks to Oliver for organising the ride and keeping us all motivated and to Wools for being a brilliant backstop - great company and great countryside!

Ilias - Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

• 1 for the Acor!
  
  

I bought a pair a few years back (metal finish) and use on two vintage bikes/bars - no problems whatsoever, look and feel good and well-priced.

Agreed with Gatti - my experience of Addison Lee drivers is that they are exceptionally careless of other road users.

Agree with cliveo to some extent - whole thing was rather overhyped - although the small vcc display tent had some interesting early day trikes. But some good stuff going on for kids - if only I was seven again!

Had a good ride though from North London, apart from getting lost in Canary Wharf and ending up in square full of BMW cars and salesmen - nightmare!
