Retro Newbie
Hey peeps

My name is Antony and I'm from Wakefield west Yorks, I own a 1994 Marin Muirwoods & another Muirwoods from around 2002 ish.. ( this is the wifes )

Anyhow, I had it bought for me new in 94 as a xmas present :D and loved it until i found beer and women :roll:

Now I find myself in my mid ( coughs) thirties and a little pudgy :oops: i thought it would be fun to get back on the thing and have some fun whilst shedding the Christmas weight :lol:

Its currently residing in my cellar and is no doubt not talking to me as I've not spoken to it since i moved house 8 years ago... I'm certain it will need some work doing to it due to it being in the cellar for so long to get it back to a good useable condition, that said, I'm not aiming to spend a fortune ( im poor!) but i want it to work as it should.

And now to the bad part.... The last thing i did with it about 9 years ago was to by some Maitou forks and a new headset which i fitted... :oops: rather badly, nothing worked everything went wrong and it stayed in the cellar..

So later today i will be plucking up the courage to go and rescue it from the darkness and set about the "restoration" :D

I shall add some pictures tonight once the brats have gone to bed...

Bye for now !
( sorry about the long intro and no pics!)
 
8) welcome, and get those pics up.

Welcome to the site!

Removing your headset should be ok then get it up and going. Sounds good.

If you want some Marin inspiration just use the search function, some lovely examples on here, none better than WD_Pro's Bear Valley rebuild.

Look forward to some pics :D
 
Hello and welcome.
I'm looking forward to seeing this.
My 1994 Muirwoods scrubbed up quite nicely.
