bbc4 now! Story of bike

Ride of My Life

Gents,

I can't tell you encouraging it is to read that many of you enjoyed the film.

Meeting and going for ride on Repack with Joe and Charlie was nothing less than extraordinary. Having read about them for 20 years, I was bricking it but they are... well, what you see in the film.

Love that Retro Bike t-shirt. I've still got the thumbies off one of my early bikes. Waiting to build up something sweet to put them on. Another bike project...

Yes Steve is the son of Nick Gravenites. How he got out of the all-night crowd and into hammering down Mount Tam is a good story. Charlie and Joe were partly responsible, I recall.

Any more questions, fire away. It's all in the book, by the way. Pic of the bike attached.

Cheers,

Rob
