Yeh pretty much a self confessed bike nut here
I have bought, sold & restored 100's (literally) of bikes over the past 20 years. Currently have circa 30 bikes dotted in my folks loft, garage, my loft, shed! All high end mostly mid 90's stuff - the golden era of anodised bling!
Love the mid 90's Konas - owned every model from 1994 through to 1996 at some point or other
My commuter spesh road bike I bought the same time as my Golf, in that 2 years I have done 18,000 miles on the road bike & 6k in the golf!
I love a bit of xc etc, done all the 7 stanes in Scotland many times, rode a lot of peak district too. I head to Cannock & Thetford as these are local to me. Just signed up for 10undertheBen this year if anybodys interested take a look, still lots of places & a really good atmosphere / friendly xc race
I'll be using either a cotic Soul or Soda (if I can convince the misses I NEED another bike frame!) for this years racing duties
If anybody needs advice on repairs or purchases I don't proclaim to know everything but can lend some advice if I can
