Just getting myself organised for a bike ride with Tony Burke, which I have been looking forward to. Something of a late starter when it comes to cycling, he's made up for it by getting well stuck now he's in his prime!

I had a quick scan of the papers earlier and my eye was drawn to an article in the Evening Standard about London's most stylish cyclists - instantly I recognised the svelte lines of my beloved Freddie Grubb, and the crisp typography, which I sadly parted company with some years ago. I knew it was the wrong thing to do but couldn't see how I'd ever get usable spare part to rebuild it. Little did I think they would again become the height of fashion... Never mind my Marin is rapidly acquiring collectable status now too!
