Old Ned
Old School Grand Master
Last seen just as a frame I have now been able to build this into a complete bike using parts from my time-trial bike (which will hopefully be upgraded for next year). I went out on it this morning for a couple of hours and, apart from a few small position tweaks, it felt good. I'll try it on the group run in the morning which is around 50 miles and I don't expect any problems.
