What about this?

Raleigh euro MTB......late 80's tank of a bike....

£50 collected from near Stansted airport.

 

[stedlocks]

This is in lovely original condition......a couple of hours fettling, and this is a time warp machine.....

Drop to £40!

Free Bump

 

[stedlocks]

Yep!
Who do I know called Bren in Cornwall?

 

[bren]

You know a Bren who used to live in stortford, bought some wheels off you, drove a beetle and a bay panelvan.... Then moved to Cornwall...
Small world! How you doing fella?
(Mandy remembers you too, says hello!)

 

[stedlocks]

Bloody hell!
Nice one mate,vim good thanks......hope the two of you a doing well?

I've got no VW's now though.....I sold my splitty to start a little business tiling......Cornwall good?

 

[bren]

Very well thanks, Cornwall suits us nicely, no vws on the road either, vans in the garage up on blocks and has been for 6 years! got a little girl coming up for her second birthday who keeps us busy instead
You still dousing fires for a living or is the tiling full time now?

 

[stedlocks]

Still on the hose full time......I only tile for family and friends, as I don't have the time since they changed my rota ( I do 96 hours on/96 off).... Nice one with the baby! My babies are 18 and 15 now!

Pop round and see me when you are down this way....or I might see you 3 if I have an epic cycle to Cornwall!

Still for sale, anyway!

 

[bren]

Ouchsies! Now that's a shift!
Wowsers! It's been a while huh!? Yeah I'll give you a shout next time we pop back, my parents still live up there, Mandy's followed us down. 3 years after we left!
Good luck with the sale type bump and all that
