Don't mince words
Our steel bike, belonged to our fgood friend Steve (R.I.P.) and bequeathed to us by his fiancee':
It's the first steel bike I've ridden in 22 years and what a smooth ride it delivers! How amazing!

Not sure if you're aware of the somewhat unusual history behind the builder of this bike -

Just picked up my first road bike, and I have great aspirations of turning it into a simple, reliable fixie commuter (picture attached).

My new bike just came in - a Lynskey (custom made for someone else, but not too far off where I would have been) with full Rival, 28 spoke F/32 R wheels.

Not a great picture (nor a very good tape job), but here's a picture of my new bike after its maiden ride. Waited for months for my Red group to come in and I finally got it built this week.

Thanks. I wasn't sure about celeste, but if you're going to have a Ferrari, you're going to get a red one, right?
