Ever had a week when you couldn't remember why you started the project
in the first place, your old bike was fine anyway, what does my wife
look like again ?, mumble, mumble .... This week was one such until today, when I finally got http://www.gillions.org.uk - Electric Blue on the road. Now I've remember why I do it. It's fun, and you get a bike to ride afterwards. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm just off for a lie down awhile in a dark room that does not look like my garage  See youse at Eastway - can't make CC, unfortunately (or is it? two hours, indeed ...) |

Wasps !! Where ?? Unfortunately, other 'arf thinks she should have a life too, and is running the London Marathon on that Sunday in preparation for her 24hr race (!?) in another month or two in Hull, which means that I am child sitting. In all safety's sake, I can't really drive down to CC, race, and drive back with the two cherubims in the car... Plus - 2hrs ? not spent that long on a recumbent yet .... |

Good job! Looking at your bikes is giving me more interest in a composite bike.

Wow, looks really neat, can't wait to get a look. I read your website and still can't believe you're all self-taught, a fine exponent of the evolutionary design approach |

Oh, shucks  Anyway, it looks better with carefully taken photos - the closer you get, the worse it looks ... Looking forward to getting it out on the roads a bit more. I still need to get a boot done, though. |
