We need to start a thread to see whos bringing their DPs to MK and get a little homage going - I hope Firebird Steve has still got one  :angel:

Surely we'd get 15-20 bikes  ???

looking very nice brett!

didn't take long at all, but now what are you going to do? wonder how long before you start thinking "what can I add to this spare seat post clamp I've got lying about...?"


I hope Firebird Steve has still got one  :angel:
hope so, or he'll have to change his user name to just 'steve'

Thanks I was aiming for something like my last old school bike and I am pretty close to it just wish I had a photo to compare it with :4_17_5:
I thought you were aiming for a replica of your old school ride :daumenhoch:  How is your build going
