Me too - I bet my neighbours are a bit pissed off - sometimes I don't drive it for 2 weeks at a time ... costs 10 quid a week just to keep it on the road ... but good to have it this time of year to get to a beach ....

except with SPD pedals, different wheels, armadillo tyres, some lights and a computer.
and some masking tape.
snap - also with different wheels, vitoria rubino tyres, lights, a computer, a brooks B17 saddle and ultegra front and rear mechs.
Thinking about getting one of these too

This is very similar to my little Trundle.
BTW Question: How can you tell someone who owns a Series II or Series III Land Rover?
Answer: Their motoring conversations always start with 'Well, I was overtaking this milkfloat on the A40'

sorry you'll have to click for to see my iron horse
Tangerinedream's lean green machine.
My bike is a Diamondback Ascent Ex (1988 I think) - It's got an LX group set and new bars, stem, seatpost and seat in recent years. It currently requires a new headset, front mech and rear brakes (right hand cantilever is fucked.) I am currently commuting without the use of back brakes
I am prepared to spend at least £100 on it this summer to get it right again - I can't imagine riding anything else - It's a lovely bike and when it's 'tuned' it rides like a dream.
I've sprayed it my self - It used to be black and dayglo pink.
It got nicked once but I got it back!
It's been all over the place and hopefully will go many more places

moose said:Lots of nice looking bikes on here - my covetous nature is almost getting the better of me, even though I'd probably use it as a clothes airer.
Get yrself a decent one second hand - you can pick up a decent bike for £150 that will wipe the floor with anything you buy from halfords. Or look at a decent bike shop. Edinburgh Cycle is brilliant. Go out and ride it and you will feel happy. It's that simple. I can think of few times I am happy as riding my bike.

You'd think that wouldn't ya,
The R1's a shedload more fun.
Yes the busa was wicked mate but she had to go cos. . . lets just say I was a very naughty boy and got off very lightly in comparison
So its more fun on the R1 at lower speeds

lower speeds my fat arse!
Don't get me wrong , I loved the busa as she had more room at back but the R1 is a nippy little bird and can handle it when bombscare decides to take off humpback bridges doing over a ton with me standing on the back pegs to keep myself on the bike!
