Hi Walkmanman

They are basically 1980's vintage quill pedals and are similar to CA45, but a more modern version.
I posted the advert by accident before I had a chance to upload any photos, but I will take a pic inthe morning and send it to you.

Please see below a life times collection of parts that need to be sold due to divorce and imminent house downsizing.
I hope you find something that you like.

I have always had a reasonably healthy diet, but I went vegan for health reasons.
I avoid any processed foods including soya.
I have a food dehydrator and make crisps etc, from root vegetables and everyone seems to enjoy them. Raw cakes are just delicious and normally get eaten before they have even made it on to a plate.

Fasting for one day a week is no food and either cold or warm water with lemon juice for drinks.
The second fasting day is 700 kcal and again water with lemon juice.
I'm now in my 50's (ugh) and as you get older your metabolism does get slower which is probably why it works well for me. I cycle at least 10 to 15 miles a day to and from work and my bike is my therapy.

I was sceptical at first myself, but I can only say that from my own personal experience I just feel so much better. I fast two days a week and eat raw food for the other five.
I can understand it wouldn't suit everyone, but it works for me.

A few months ago I went raw vegan and it's amazing how much more energy I have.
It was more for health reasons, but a considerable weight loss and blood pressure back to normal.

200.00 and I am either in Princes Risborough or Heathrow

I think we are going to give Den Helder a try, nice beaches and not too far from Amsterdam.

Good job I don't drink too much !
It's really hard to decide b/c I know the weather may not be guaranteed to be good at the end of August. So will need standby things to do.
Still tilted towards Holland, maybe Maastricht as it's close to Germany and Belgium.

Thanks..Thats's not somewhere I had thought of...I will see what I can find out about it on the internet.

I can't decide where in Europe to go for a family holiday to include a weeks worth of cycling?
We have been to Belgium a few tiimes and really enjoyed it, but we quite fancy either Holland, Germany or possibly Poland.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Took the plunge and bought a Sactto bike.
My son is already in a cycling club and has shown enough dedication to be on the track in the wind and rain, that I think this is not so extravagant.
Saccto have been very helpful and are interrupting their schedule to build one so we can have it before christmas.
I'll take some pics when we get it and will post them on the forum.

OK what I meant is that it is a scaled down road race bike as opposed to a conventional childrens bike. Better for you ?

I think Father Christmas may have to make a decision pretty quick so the elf's can get one ready in time !

Thank you for the advice.
I have been really tempted by the Isla bike and their price is very good.
We know someone who has another bike in their range and has been very pleased with it.
*The SCATTO bike really appeals to me (maybe this is the problem) and looks like a Tour de France bike. *

I am looking to buy a new racing bike for my 8 year old son and have come accross a bike manufacturer called SCATTO in Belgium who make racing bikes for children.

Has anyone heard of them or knows anything about them ?

Definitely along lunch, I started at about 2.30 pm and went back to the office at about 7.30 pm.
That's the only problem with cycling and a nice day it reeks havoc on doing any work !

I have had my fixie for just over a week now and can not believe how good it is.
All my other bikes seem to be redundant now 'cause it just seems to be perfect for my normal riding.
Early day to day and I am deciding where to ride to ?

That's the great thing about a bike, it takes you to places you wouldn't see by any other form of transport.

In fact I may even go sick and do it all again tomorrow.
I will have to find colour co ordinated bike parts and suitable rolled up jeans or risk looking uncool.

It's been a terrible week at work, very stressful.
This morning I threw my bike in the back of my van hoping to get a short ride in at lunch time.
I went to work and more bloody problems, but at lunch time enough was enough.
Well with it being such a lovely afternoon I left my office at Heathrow and rode the Thames Path all the way to Westminster, up Whitehall, a quick coffee in Leicester Square and back again. Sheer bliss, no people, no phones, no problems..just me and my bike and a clear head.
Not much of a post, but I just had to share the sheer uncomplicated happiness of riding on a beautiful autumn day. It just had to be done.

The main difference with cycling in Holland & Belgium is their cycle lanes.
They are extremely safe to use and the unwritten rule is that bikes take priority over motor vehicles.
Bikes are also used as a form of transport and not just as a leisure activity.
Maybe one lesson we can learn from them is that they do not jump red lights as either a cyclist or pedestrian. Perhaps why car users are very tolerant of cyclists is that they obey the rules of the road.
