Title: hello! S&M Holmes
Post by: nomad on September 10, 2008, 09:26 PM: hello, new here so thought I would say hi. Thanks to my mate (S1 on here) am too trying to relive my youth! Just bought a Holmes frame, which was the last bike I had before stopping riding in 1999. I intend to build my dream bike around the frame.

So thats it really, hello!
