Jack Taylor #5585 …

… has seen better days. No fork either. DT is trash. TT is dented.
That said still considering bringing her back around.

Serial should put it at a 1966. Model is likely a Tour of Britain I seem to always end of with crusty TOB’s.

nlerner I think captured this one and sent it to me maybe, i dont know, 5 years ago.

I will likely take it over to Bilenky sometime soon and see what he thinks he can do with it.

I hope further that you can match the box lining -holiday76 . It is one of the little things that make Jack Taylor's so appealing to me.

Then again, Bilenky and co. are masters.

Bikes: It's complicated.

Seeing those pics, I’m reminded of my favorite carp recipe…
