Looking DOPE!

are you going to restore it or leave as is?

Gotta say I could take or leave zima's before, that huge fixed zip back post really threw me off, but I'm starting to get a real itch for one now 

guess we can say its scratched

Yes we could! 
I think the thing was, they were so different at the time, and I couldn’t get my head round it, which is weird because it addressed a lot of problems with frames at the time......it took me 20 years to realise that!

Weird thing is I have been going to New Milton on holiday for nearly 40 years.

I've never heard of Zima (or forgot, because I had every issue of ride over four years at one point) and I also never knew there was a ramp there.

It's a teeny weeny little village in the middle of nowhere. Been to Lymington market a crap load of times too.

Interesting bikes. Imagine trying to do a tail whip on one of those fixed seat ones eh? You'll need to do a can can tailwhip lol.
