  1. Does anyone have any contact information for Peter Ross or
    know of other persons riding Speed Ross bikes. These are
    straight tube SWB recumbents which were made in England
    until a few years ago.

  2. As I understand it, Peter Ross retired sometime in 2001 and
    a company called <http://www.kinetics-online.co.uk/>
    purchased the jigs and fixtures for the Speed Ross. Whether
    or not they have any spares, you'd have to enquire. I think
    I must have purchased one of the last, and that was in April
    2001. Mike. 2001 Speed Ross

    Kinetics? That's Darth Ben, I think. Wasn't Peter Ross the
    originator of the Trice?

    Yep. Darth Ben bougth the jigs and stuff with the aim of
    putting the bike back into production, but never found the
    time. He offered them for sale a few years back, so I don't
    know whether he still has them. However, no-one else has
    admitted to it.

    Trice, Festina and Gem (now Toucan) as well as the Speed
    Ross. And arguably responsible for getting Mike Costin and
    Keith Duckworth together...

  5. Yes that is the person I am looking for an e-mail address
    for. I had reworked the Speed Ross bike he sold me six years
    ago and thought I would e-mail him a picture and thank you
    note for the enjoyment I have gotten from that bike.

  6. I have a 1998 Speed Ross. I haven't ridden it for a couple
    years and keep it as a collector's item. I exchanged an e-
    mail with Peter Ross within the past 6 months. I doubt he
    wants his personal e-mail address posted to this newsgroup
    but if you e-mail me privately I will give it to you. E-mail
    me at my regular zakaplan at earthlink dot net address as I
    seldom check this yahoo address which is just used for
    collecting spam from the spammers that harvest newsgroups.
