Some how I've ended up with 4 projects on the go at the same time.....just don't ask!
I think it started when I realised I needed a clear out...see below
That led me to look and question everything in the shed.....did I use it, did it do what i wanted, did i like it, is it really what i need, can i still ride it without being crippled after 15 mins!
Sadly this led to me deciding to put up for sale my very much loved Marin Pine Mountain.....its just too small.
The replacement is a bike well known to many on here; really its nothing that special, but its come from another stork thanks @The History Man .
I was going to get it re powered, as its had a hard life and some damage, but could not decide which colour.....its a lovely purple, but it had lost quite a bit of it in places.....hard life.
So here it is on day one.....im sure many of you remember it. Although it had already lost its Ocky stickers.

The eternal sunshine of the spotless parts cupboard.
Space......the final frontier......these are the voyages of the parts ship Tootyred, its 4 year mission, to boldly go where nobody has gone......for at least a good while.......well the back of the shed. Its taken 4 years, but its nearly all gone. Starting with the stuff i didn't like and cant...
