HI ALL

 

im thinking of hosting an awsome event at the shop(woodstock cycleworks)

 

What I thought is that each person that comes brings their most beloved and interesting bicycle(complete)to show off.

 

I know for a fact we have some minters floating around this Forum and im keen to see them in REAL life.

 

Who's keen

Beautiful. Been lusting after one of those Colnago frames with the straight fork. One day *sigh*

Yeah! We also need to get the babes out on the road sometime. "The Heavy Metal Ride"? "The Velopede"? "The Friction Shift"? Everyone on old machines going out to Stellies, or Simonstown, or just the cycle path to Big Bay/Tableview, or a decent coffee shop somewhere.

I am looking for a 7spd Shimano 600 or Dura ace RD, anyone out there that has one lying around gathering dust?

Tha Colnago is hot or is it cool. Old school meets new school. That silver stem is super hot. An old Rolls saddle will look great on it.
