Go Stumpy!

oh no, maybe its a versus, stumpjumper versus burner

I wanted a Burner!

Nothing like a bit leg mmmm

I had a Super Tuff Burner (Is it coz I iz posh? 😉 )

That was a reissue Stumpy, surely?

Seen the legs on her, I would till her toe nails fell off !!!!!!!!!!! 😈

god knows, for £10k its gotta be worth making a fake

you can spot the reissue stumpy's cos they've got modern xt cranks & mechs

Bet they'd have won the car comp if they'd sent Suzy to show it off!

Burner had to win. Even a died in the wool MTBer would agree. Most of us came to MTBs via a burner or similar. They were the epitome of 'pissing about in the woods on bikes' for me. Happy memories.

Me rocking the chrome burner and 'full face' at some point in the '80s

Loving that pic, reminds me of some quality times on the track in our local woods. I was too posh for a raleigh, I had a Diamondback Viper 8) Wonder if my old man has some pics of that…
