Hello from Scotland
Hello everyone
Thought it high time I joined. I'm here to wander through a few threads, particular interests are vintage track, road and TT bikes. My favourite at the moment are 80's bikes of which I have three, a KhVZ track pursuit bike, an unknown lo pro TT bike and a Vitus 979. My previous job involved a lot of work at the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome in Glasgow. I'm currently building a Jan Ullrich 2003 Bianchi EV4 as I am a massive Ullrich fan. I'll post pics of my stable when I'm able.

Jan Ullrich! The one cyclist that Lance Armstrong has said that he always feared.
The people in the Track Racing subforum on this site will undoubtedly be very interested in your insights from your time at the Chris Hoy Velodrome. And there are also plenty of fans of '80s TT bikes in the Classic and Vintage and Road subforums. I, for one, am looking forward to your posts.

Thanks guys, really enjoying the vintage TT bike thread, I'll see if I can dig out the Glasgow Velodrome build time lapse, a lovely track and such an honour to meet the builders.
