Over(bury's)coming a feeling of guilt....pic heavy!

[makster]

On Sunday's South East ride, I got chatting to Tad about my Overbury's. I mentioned that I hadn't touched it since I placed it back in my spare room after last years Mountain Mayhem.
The guilt I felt afterwards was compounded while cleaning my Rock Lobster today, and made worse when I put the lobby away nice and clean...

I couldn't take it any more so I cleared a path through all the stuff in the room and dug the Pioneer out.
I hadn't even cleaned it since Mayhem (I know, I'm crying inside writing this ) so gave her a good wash and polish.
A bit of air in both tyres and time for a spin. I wanted to visit my Mum so took the scenic route there and back, along the beach.
Time to stop at my favorite picture point...

I hope the pics go somewhere towards a retrobike forgiveness

Hmmmph! Even I have to grudgingly admit that's a pretty bike...

Perhaps you should "treat" her to some posh cables as well makster to say sorry

Seriously though, 3 nice bikes but this is different gravy.

I've thought long and hard about upgrading, but everything is as it left Overbury's on November 10th 1990 it at the moment (even down to those cable ties ) so I'm loath to change anything.
If/when stuff breaks then I'll change it, but its averaging about 50 miles a year at the moment so that should be some way off

Thankyou!
I've just got a Casio Exilm, so nothing special

That wasn't supposed to happen!

You were supposed to get home, look at it un-ridden and un-loved then PM me to tell me the sorry news that you were going to have sell it to me

Still looking good.

perfection matey! Your spare room looks like mine at the moment, so needs a damn good sort out and a trip to IKEA for some nice shelving for my bits and bobs.
