Hello from Lancashire, UK
 
Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen.

I am a 44yo male cyclist and the current chairman of Cycle Sport Pendle
I've been a keen cyclist since the age of 15 and try to now put back as much as I have taken from the sport. Over the years I have ridden predominantly road-bikes but have dabbled in mountain-bikes and cyclo-cross. Although not currently fit enough to race I have been an overly-competitive 3rd category UK licence holder - without necessarily having the time or ability to progress further.

My current passion is a mid-70's retro Olmo project which was inspired by a trip to Eroica UK recently.

Bikes past/present:

MKM 531
Peugeot Perthus Pro 753
Raleigh 531
Trek 950
Marin Team Ti
Joe Waugh 653
Bianchi XL Scandium
Univega full-suss
Columbus x-Wing CX
Giant Omnium
Kinesis GF-Ti
Chinese Venge-a-like
Olmo Competition C

I think that covers it.

Cheers y'all.

Welcome, Neil! Got any pictures to share of the Olmo? And while you're at it, what 'Raleigh 531' is/was that?
