Steel is Real
Good evening everybody.....my name is Gags and I'm a bikeaholic........It
has been one day since I last bought a bike....... On the weekend I scored that Hillman fixie (531 Reynolds) that someone pointed out on ebay the other week. I was away the week that it went on ebay but it didn't get any bids so I negotiated a price below the ebay starting price with the seller and......here it is sitting in the shed (I haven't adjusted the seat pole up as yet). http://tinyurl.com/an5zq I also started building up my CW frame (853 Reynolds) that I got back from CW after its respray the other week. I think the colour I chose was "midnight blue" and I am pretty happy with how it looks so far (can't wait to get it up and running) http://tinyurl.com/7t5ct My shed is starting to look a bit like a bike shop as I now have 5 complete bikes and 2 frames, the wife has a mountain bike and the kids have a bike each and a scooter!!!! Once I have all 5 bikes up and running, I am planning on having a couple of weeks worth of commuting where I ride a different bike for each day of the week!! Ride On, Gags |

Trolling such things before me is cruel and unusual treatment. It's a little small for me but not by enough that it would stop me buying it if I had the money. I really rather want that. |

Ya gotta put your foot down about the ol computer gear though. A shed isn't for keeping house junk in, it's fo making stuff. Ditch the old PCs, and replace them with a nice brazin setup, or a lathe, or... Oh, nice bikes, too. Surely you need just one more tho ;P Regards, Suzy (who spent the last few weekends building a spray booth in he garage - now there's _absolutely_ no way she'll ever get a car i there -- suzyj |
