I'm not building anymore but I am going to change this one around. Originally built for the Cleethorpes Ride 2014, I found an original survivor in the same colour shortly after so it's time for a change.

What's on your To Do list?

A new colour scheme for one of my bikes. I'm about to commit the cardinal sin of stripping some perfectly good chrome plate and getting a frame powdered.

Nothing new at all for me now, I am all built out. In fact I will be selling a few of my bikes over the winter.

Same one I've had on the go for the last 3 years

. I'm not the fasted, have gathered a few more parts for it over the summer though (crank, seat, tyres, levers, seat clamp & nice Del custom decals). Be hunting for calipers and wheels this winter - and may finally get the haul of parts to the chromers.

Then there's this that should really be stripped for a fresh coat of paint, and again some custom Del decals waiting, then replacement on pedals, brake, and maybe seat and post $:-\$

Slowly starting to gather parts in case the holy grail (GJS freestyler) suddenly pops up. One sold on ebay last month for a bargain price and i missed it. I quite fancy doing an extra burner too, but not done anything about it yet...

just waiting for the wheels to come back from the lbs

Hopefully get the last few bits for the Silver Streak, get a rear caliper for the Robbo, and replace the one I painted myself. Get a caliper and chain for my Aero Reflex and finish that, then hopefully save some cash for the first build of the New Year, which I think will be an SE, Torker, TA or something nice like that.

You must be mental, I'd give my left tezzie to get into some of the situations I got in before I got married.
