Quick walk on our local beach before the humans take over 😂. Spot the excellent Basset hound recall on picture 4 Smells out do obedience

After a bowl of sausage and burger Flo made it home and went straight into Basset lay down mode

She loves this, sees the world go by and enjoys the sun and fresh air.

Just built this up from mostly parts lying around Bought F&F which came with cranks,power disc and Tange BB. Rides smooth ,sealed bearing Suzie hubs and brakes that work well. A mtb/road seat because it’s more comfortable!

We have had these 10 years plus now. My aluminium De Rosa weighs 7.3kg. I’ve had carbon bikes but it’s something about this one that is just right for me.
The Bianchi , well she just loves it
Both have Campagnolo groupsets.
Shame the roads are in a terrible state as they might be used a bit more again (UK)🙁

Decorating the bike room so crammed most of them in the spare room 😃

Nice ride , no wind and a few stop/chats along the way 😃. BMX for life

Flo ❤️

So i picked this frameset up last year as an unknown twin top tube. After plenty of research I’ve narrowed it down to a frame builder called Mike Kowal. He worked at the Reynolds factory (UK) He was known for road bike frame building but also made the Wilson twin tube freestyler for Steve Wilson bikes. I got a message from Steve saying this was not one of his bikes but probably a one of frame/forks made in the same factory by Mike. If you compare a Wilson freestyler to this the only difference is the Torker style gusset. It has a short 17 1/2” TT and was made up as a mini/expert. It’s brazed and is in still great condition. I spoke to a guy who sold it a few years ago and he said his dad bought it off someone who had it specifically made. Maybe I will never know 100% what it is unless I can find Mike Kowal!

Sweet ride

So many birds today, plus 6 Jays, 2 Curlew, cormorant,Grey heron and the usual song birds
