    the Arnham mountain bike museum, anyone fancy a trip over there?

    The the most nearby airport is Eindhoven I think. It is around 70km form Arnhem. I've never flown through Eindhoven, so I can't tell whether it is any good or convenient.

    the Arnham mountain bike museum, anyone fancy a trip over there?

    I went there last year. I stayed in a nice hotel in De Steeg, next to the Rhenen trail. There are a couple nice MTB-routes in the area. I did visit Jeroen's museum. The museum is also next to a route. I am based in NL, so I didn't opt for the plane to go there.

    This is a TrailRunner form the 1992 modelyear. It has a welded aluminium and bonded aluminium 'FatMax' forks. The TrailRunner had a sister-model with similar specs: the RidgeRunner.

    1989 Koga Miyata SkyRunner

    Very nice and interesting. Yes, it is pretty rare. There are more of the RidgeRunner. I encountered another one (or this one?) on a trail several years ago, but that is what I have seen live. This model was succeeded by other welded aluminium frames, like the '91 and '92 TrailRunner and the...

    1989 Miyata Ridge Runner Team

    Miyata manufactured the frames for Koga from 1974 up to 1996. In the early/mid 90s frame production in Japan became very expensive and other frame production locations gained momentum (Taiwan). Models like the 1997 Survivor of 1997 Explosion (twin down tube frame) are made by Hodaka, even though...

    1993 Fat Chance Yo Eddy

    Yes, I used Mike Sanders on my Aquafade Yo already 20 years ago. You need to heat the stuff up to 100+ degrees and you need a compressor with serious spray gun. I can't think of better protection. A spray can Fluid Film ASR offers also good protection and much easier to work with. They are...
