7-Eleven or Peugeot knicks circa 1987
 
So I am reading this article on that seppo Hampsten and I bloody want some black 7-eleven or black peugeot knicks. Am I dreaming? Is there anyone making this kind of retro racing kit anywhere?

I've probably got some second hand ones in a drawer somewhere. I'll throw in the skiddies for nothing.

Prendas Ciclismo have peugeot jerseys and shorts. Tres cool. I might get some myself.

EDIT - Ha!

They have 7/eleven too,

:beer: bloke.

I'm not worthy of your skiddy riddled jobies. I was more chasing after some of these babies:

I'd like to give you an answer, except I don't have a farkin clue what you just wrote.

Do they have schools in Australia, or are you all raised by Dingos in the Bush? ;)

Nah its just me. I have no friends so I tend to talk to myself a lot. Which invariably lends itself to making up new words and generally speaking gibberish....'dingo talk'. :p

I can offer an ADR skinsuit I bought from Cayn Theakston @ the 1989 Sun tour. Barely worn...:D

There was a 7-Eleven skinsuit sold on EBay a while ago for some pretty low buck.

Cayn Theakson. That would be size xxsmall. :p

When he won a Suntour stage at Donna Buang the old man held him up after the presentation for a chat (which CT was happy to do), which was a bit thoughtless of him considering it was below 0C and snowing. :D

Another memory from that day - watching Sid Patterson drinking pots one after the other at Warburton pub. One of the most impressive displays of binge drinking I have ever had the privilege of witnessing.

Yep....wasn't his. Still in the Santini bag with swing tags.

Lovely bloke....seemed to have no worries chatting to spotty faced 16 year old try-hards banging on as he attempted to prepare for a race.

He looked like a little boy too. Must have been a bit of a hard case though, racing on the cut-throat Portugese scene.

Didn't he end up finding God or something?

Good work pcates.

God bless PBK. They always seem to be thinking along the same lines as me. No wonder they are such a god damn bloody huge success.
