Today, a colleague and I went to recce a mountainbike trip round Grizedale Forest Park, sorting out a route, sussing out health and safety issues and other logistics.
As you can see, this is desperate work. More pictures from the day on My Flickr Page.
Hamilton looks knackered! hey, that looks like a retrobike you have there Clive! You don't go on Retrobike.co.uk, by any chance?
ReplyDeleteHamilton was indeed knackered.
ReplyDeleteThat's an Orange P7 fitted with Pace RC36 forks. The frame is from before forks had 4 inches of travel (the RC36s have around 2 inches) and is a thing of beauty. I especially like the fact that the chainstays, close to the bottom bracket, have no connecting tube making for a very clean appearance and big mud clearance .
It's a lovely bike, very versatile.
