Hey man,
I'm at college at Hills which is why you might have seen me kicking around there,
I liked the bare metal idea too, but mine is going to rust like a bitch, did you have the same problem?
I'm split as to whether to spend another lifetime in my garage re lacquering it, or to just let it rust and pretend i meant it to happen ha. OR just pray for a very very dry summer.
Thanks for the offer for the saddle! I have one already (the stock saddle on my fuji track) but awaiting a new one (along with some other bits) which should arrive tomorrow.
I really want to pop down for one of the rides but I'm normally working in the evening on Thursdays (at the picturehouse in town). Where abouts do you normally head to? I guess it's pretty weather dependent at the moment.
I gave up on the idea of cycling to work today by the time I got to the end of my road. Instead I turned around and practised skidding with my other foot for about an hour!
Anyway, hope to see you in person soon. It's supposed to ice up real bad tonight so take care!
