another one bites the dust. i was going to take parts from this sucker and use them on hugo but plans change so it is time it went. i re-taped the bars, stuck two new tires and cleaned the shitter out of it. now hes on ebay and within 15mins of him going up someone had put the first bid in so he is going to leave the nest. i hope i can at least recover costs. i am doubtful but. he will have to go for around $245…
bit of an ask realy but hey…
who knows?
UPDATE
well the peugeot is on fire. for the first time every i have had multiple bids on the first day of a listing. i am really hopeful i will make back my money. with 6 days to go it is a magical $174.50 with 19 watches. this will be interesting

the puch sold. i am so amazed, i still remember walking up the driveway with the puch over my should and karen on the deck say “you, what is that???!!!!” and being cranky. well for $78.50 whos cranky now! no-one.
now what to do with my hard earned cash!
the dirt works is only a week away and i am a little nervous about it all. i still don’t have a functioning MTB and i haven’t had any really training. the front derailluer is on its way, lets hope it arrives monday and i can try and install it myself, if not it will be off to the LBS.
i rode tarini to winmalee on thursday, day off as karen was ill, and got a flat just before the shops. i locked him up and walked back home. bloody road tires! i did however get a 20km+ ride in today on him so i am trying to keep up some kind of riding schedule. 20km isn’t much but i did push hard on the hills etc.
jas and i will travel together. hes on the 100km so we can camp close to the track start line, as should nick and his brother be able to. i will take the camera to try and get some shots after i finish. can’t wait. its going to be hard but lots of fun. weather is very iffy again. i will probably pick up some gels and electrolites etc if i can before the race.

i built it up as a temporary fixed gear as an example for the ebay ad. i would love to keep it rip the puch stickers off etc.
i seem to be able to find bikes but not yet the right size. hears hoping my day will come and i find a correct size great from for me… not ebay
i have more images of it on photobucket, i only use photobucket for ebay.
you may notice the dirty marks on our house front door. thats from kasey trying to get in the front door if she is left on the deck
