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).

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)

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

Nice one Gags. So you'll be coming along to the next FR?

Speaking of which, PH, when's the next one? There aren't enough public
holidays this time of year.

Nice! I also have an old CW frame that is currently being resprayed.
My colour of choice is 'Hothouse' which is that green colour that ever
second VY SS Commodore is painted. It'll be built as a fixie, and
can't wait to see/ride it when it is finished

I am a student, A STUDENT! 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.

A very nice shed it is, too. 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
