And today I did......

Option 5 - Sacrifice it to the ancient Gods of Thrunton Woods. With such a magnificient offering you would surely be blessed with at least a year's riding free from injury and bike failure.

We're planning on offering The Gimplord to the Thrunton Gods next time he turns up. :LOL: :LOL:
 
Si, use the bike as bait to get punters out with your group. Let someone new ride it at a meet, that way you still have it, you dont need to put more cash into it and it makes newbies smile and think YES I must get into this retro idea. ;)

And that idea is why you should still be MacRetro AEC.

Good thinking!
 
I can see what you mean- but for me its the red that doesn't look right, black or polished for those parts would make a big difference... maybe polished stem and post too?

Says the bloke with the most colours possible on one frame!!

(If I had cash I'd be beating down your door though)

We could extend that idea to Macretro, but using one of velo's old gates, complete with the finest selection of mis-matched parts money doesn't buy. Before we know it we'd be overrun by bike-jumble loving Mick Fleetwood types. ;)

And this is why I'll never be an AEC.
