A friend of mine has been writing a regular series on cycling that has been published every Saturday through the summer and thought I'd share some links.

The last installment was about my partner and mentor in frame building, Arvon Stacey.

Another was on another friend who is one of the most pre-eminent collectors of vintage CCM bicycles in the world and an incredibly nice human being to boot.

They also wrote a nice piece on our community co-op as this is where old bikes go to be reborn and where I spend a little time...

Cool articles, Sixty Fiver. I especially liked the part about the all night party at the Coop:

""We worked on it until about midnight, and then I went out to a friend's birthday party and came back with a bottle of brandy and we kept working on it for over 24 hours"

It was the start of what has become one of the best friendships of my entire life and we get to celebrate the anniversary of that friendship every year when we do the 24 hour repair marathon together.

I am taking a shot-gun approach to finding out more information regarding old CCMs, specifically a pre-war Flyer that I stumbled upon. Shoot me a message.

John and I have become good friends over the past few years... partly because of our love of old CCM's.

What's the core difference between the Flyer and Road Race in the 1930's?
