Re: Great Grandmother Retrobiker!
My Mum's 70 and put me to shame off road back in the summer on the Haro I built her!! (Now fitted with mudguards and big rack top bag for sarnies, mars bars and her comb and make up!! :facepalm: )
Looks a bit like your Mum too...they're all mad!! If she ever wants to sell the bike...

Re:
Update.. Great Grandma is still going strong, she wore out the bottom bracket! So it's time for some upgrades. Treated her to a new BB, 170mm XT cranks, LX rings transplanted from a NOS LX crankset, minty XTR rear derailleur, new chain and cassette, NOS DX brakes and some nice LX brake levers and shifters.
The leafless trees show this was a while ago but i couldn't load pics for ages 'till i discovered the firewall on my laptop was blocking.
Zoom.. there she goes... Will we ever catch her?
