I think I'm in... with this. I first need to talk "time framing" with my partner in crimes against doing-sane-things and bike builds. I don't know if he can invest the amount of time it's going to take.
So far, we've pulled the headset and seat post, just to see if they would budge. I guess that could be construed as fudging on the rules, or at least the spirit, but we will see how the judges rule on it, and take whatever penalties are levied upon us. But not without complaining about the injustice.
Identified as a Raleigh Record, dating from somewhere after the dawn of time, but before 1972.
It's blue, and once resembled a bicycle.
