lux great! Never seen that colour before.
any chance of a better (no offence) pic? The green bin and the grass somewhat camouflage it.

and Deltas too .. wish I'd kept mine
 
Great frame 8) , nicely built

Happy to see the tyres also found good use.

Isn't it a bit slippery in the snow?

Did you give the frame a decent rust prevention treathment? -especially for those conditions
 
This is just whats left of the snow in our garden - the roads are dry.

This 'aint gonna see a wet day!

some more crap pics:
