Theres a junk yard in town that Ive got a few things from. I got a pair of 700c wheels. 9 speed cassette, shimano hubs, 24 bladed spokes on deep v black alloy rims. was going to get tyres and put them on the Rossin I got a few weeks ago. Wheels were £1. I got a mtb disc front wheel at the same time. so 33 pence a wheel.

I was up at the junk yard yesterday. I found a GT LTS2 frame, swingarm, shock, headset cartridges and XT mech. all a bit corroded. I left it at the side, as I found this Univega. Univega Alpina. I think its from mid 90s. Shimano xt rear mech. LX cantilevers. DX levers. The man in the office said put £1 in the charity box. I put all my coins in there. about 73 pence. Bike is my size. Ive got a pair of exage hubs Im going to build up. so might use this. I had originally wanted it for parts tho.

I had my Xmas bike. a bike I had found in the woods, then put in police lost property.

Its an Apollo FS26. Low end bike from a chain store, I used to work for. Its ok. I strapped the univega frame to my rucksack and biked home 10 miles. pedal was sticking in my neck, so my heads like that today
