Awesome build Sean....lovely.

Meticus, I've had a discussion a few times about the Scorpions....when I was a kid, I remember the Scorpion and the sister bike called a Sentinel Exploder... but you called them Scorpion Exploder...weird.

I think it was called a Sentinel Exploder not sure if made by Scorpion or by Sentinel under license, but here's the review and an advert that makes reference to both Sentinel and Scorpion...

Marty, look at that advert you posted. 'imported by biquip, Yorktown Industrial Estate, Camberley'. Do you remember me saying that a few people had them where I was and that they had been nicked from the warehouse? I lived in Blackwater, 2 minutes down the road from Camberley. I knew I wasn't mad!

....enjoy your dream

I can understand what you are saying about summer all day...It doesn't matter what decade we rode...or what we rode. (I was pre BMX so I rode whatever there was). I was out all day cycling, and every day was an adventure...down by the river, in the park,over some rough ground...days seemed to last forever.

Life as an adult sucks.
