Retrobike resolutions 2025?

1) Failed. Rode less this year than the year before. Not really sure why though.

2) Done. Major clear out and lots of bits that I just wasn't going to use got sold on. Still a few bits to do, but de-cluttering has felt good.

3) Partial. In the two-wheeled context a bit of a fail on account of #1, however as a metaphor for life it's been a bit of a success and a realisation that doing my own thing is just fine thank you very much.

Oh, and I found my Unicorn. 16 years after I first joined here in the hope to gain knowledge about it and maybe even find one.
What is your unicorn?
 
A 1994 GT Talera with the mighty Alivio groupset and a very rare blue paintjob. A replica of the first MTB I bought with my own money.

In truth, the one I have is badged a Timberline - but it's the same frame, paintjob and kit. The only Talera in that colour I could find was in South Africa.

A build thread to follow...
