Things have moved on since the retro meet organised by Scant in '05.

This year we have two teams riding and a stand!

There will be a meet of course, the emphasis will be on hanging out....

Let's say 11am on saturday 23rd June on the retrobike stand :D

Want to see as many of you as possible with your best old school bikes fully pimped out.....

Forgot to ask - any 'rules' regarding racing the retro rigs??? Are you Elitists going retro at any stage? Can individual riders ride more than one bike during the event? I would like to try to race at least 2 maybe 3 bikes if poss...

We will always have the psychological advantage :wink: All that lot know that they are fast, our potential fitness is an unknown quantity to them.

Didn't realise this was going to get so competitive :D

Plus Russell, we do have the advantage of the powers of Wu. I could hex people you know or Just dazzle them with an array of satin dressing gowns - a different on each lap.

How about making Wu race looking like Mr Benn "the full suit and bowler hat?"
Now that would attract some interest :shock:

I don't like the idea of 'making' Wu do anything. - You don't want to tamper with my balance - butterfly effect etc, all hell could break loose.
