Once I have all 5 bikes up and running, I am planning on having a couple of
weeks worth of commuting where I ride a different bike for each day of the
week!!

On the weekend I scored that Hillman fixie (531 Reynolds) that someone
pointed out on ebay the other week. I was away the week that it went on
ebay but it didn't get any bids so I negotiated a price below the ebay
starting price with the seller and......here it is sitting in the shed (I
haven't adjusted the seat pole up as yet).

I also started building up my CW frame (853 Reynolds) that I got back from
CW after its respray the other week. I think the colour I chose was
"midnight blue" and I am pretty happy with how it looks so far (can't wait
to get it up and running)

Nice one Gags. So you'll be coming along to the next FR?

Speaking of which, PH, when's the next one? There aren't enough public
holidays this time of year.

Nice! I also have an old CW frame that is currently being resprayed. My colour of choice is 'Hothouse' which is that green colour that every second VY SS Commodore is painted. It'll be built as a fixie, and I can't wait to see/ride it when it is finished.

I am a student, A STUDENT! Trolling such things before me is cruel and
unusual treatment. It's a little small for me but not by enough that it
would stop me buying it if I had the money. I really rather want that.

A very nice shed it is, too. Ya gotta put your foot down about the old computer gear though. A shed isn't for keeping house junk in, it's for making stuff. Ditch the old PCs, and replace them with a nice brazing setup, or a lathe, or...

Oh, nice bikes, too. Surely you need just one more tho ;P

That "old PC" is exactly that (still running Windows 98) and it is hooked up
to my Microchip programmer (gotta get around to making that light
controller) and occassionally provides me with music as I have got about a
gig or so worth of music on the 2 gig HDD (that was an upgrade from orignal
540Meg drive that was standard when I bought it in about 1995).
