I had a Pace RC200 too, about 17 years old. Cost me a small fortune. Stunning machine.

Some f*cker stole it a year ago.

I'm still gutted

One of my mates gave me his old bike when he bought a new one, I am picking it up from him in couple of weeks, I dont know much about bikes these days, he told me it is a Scott Genius 30 2011 model, he decided he wanted a new bike and had plenty of spare cash so he spunked £10K on a new bike (Dunno which one?) and gave me his old one  :happy2:, that man has more money than sense, offered him some money for it and he said "dont worry about it, saves me trying to sell it"  :signLOL: :signLOL:, I said If I sell it I will give him the money for it, think he is trying to get me into Mountain Biking again  :grin:
