The Retirement Thread

[Elybazza61]

Have spent ,most of the day in the shed putting up hooks for two ladders,a shelf and generally tidying and sorting some stuff out.

Also mocked up the Diamond Back frame I had plans to turn in to a Klunker/utility bike (27.5 and 700c 'guards on fa rame for 26" wheels ) to see if it will work but found out I don't have a suitable seat-post so can't really see if it''l work size wise, also need some rims, quill stem and shifter so going to cost more than I thought so still in two minds if it's worth it.

Then finished off tidying up the All Road bike that I moved the front light on.

Oh also fixed some guttering feeding one of the water butts.

Tis no good when your erection sags but it happens to us all.

How old do you have to be before that happens?

Building up from a bare frame always ends up costing more than you originally anticipated. I’ve done a few bare frame builds over the years and never made any money out of them. Enjoyed the process though!
