Ey up all

[SX KYD]

Hi all

I will be interested to see what you all have to say about life. I am a keen cyclist on a 'keeping the waistline in trim basis', I try to get out once a week for 30 ish miles on road or 20 off road. Road bike is a 'stiggy' (stig of the dump) a 20 year old Peugeot which i picked out of the local tip for a fiver, it has covered over 600 miles since I found it and have only just invested in two new tyres....other parts such as triple crank, chain, pedals and saddle have come via e-bay. Next investment is a shimano hub to replace the original 'maillard' which is about to self-destruct.
Off road I have a slightly better steed...a Cube ltd pro.

Cheers

S

Hi there I'm new too. I see you don't mines an ex-tip bike, my Claud took about 15 minutes of adjusting and I was off on a short ride around the block nothing needed Until I went to France with it.

Good luck mate.

Nordog hi.....Stiggy has just returned from France after a watching a section of the T d F (well all 30 seconds as they came past). Maybe we could set up a special section on bikes salvaged from dumps.
I'm in Sherborne by the way.

Cheers
