LOL - beautiful machines in fab condition, but with my gammy disc I can feel the pain from here... have to stick to flat bars now even if they don't look so nifty.
Still manage a good pace though - much to the surprise of a passing roadie the other day, who kept checking if this old geezer on a Dawes Horizon touring bike with Marathon plus tyres and flat bars really was matching him stroke for stroke for a few miles until I had to turn off
Back on track, what would I do - assuming mechanically all is sound... fit fenders so I could ride in all weathers without getting covered in mud and road splatter and decent lights front and back.
