Bikes: AS Engineering S-327 with Challenge seat, Schlumpf Mountain drive, Bebop pedals, own make lighting system and flag. This trike frustratingly never yet on the road due to slow delivery of a few Magura bits from my local bike shop. Also, Saracen Tufftrax MTB, U-brakes, road tyres, sawn-off-inverted drop handlebars, almost every component worn out and replaced. Also, cheapie Raleigh 700c 'sports bike', steel rims etc, left at my parent's place.
Rides: 2800? km/year (Used to have a cycle computer with ca 18000 km on the clock, but lost it a couple of years ago. At present I do maybe 1 km each way to work, also 6 km shopping two or three times a week, longer rides at weekends, other miscellaneous journeys. All his on the wedgie [not for long...]. Also test ride most every bike in Encycleopedia...)
Where: York, UK. Previously round Oxford, then Worthing, London, all UK; then Aachen, Germany. Toured in Corsica (on the Raleigh!), Zurich to Oostende, short UK tours. All everyday transport by bike.
