Been looking through some old books i refound at home, how technology has changed the bikes, i’d like to think the ethos behind it all is the same though.

Dated 1988

I used to lust for a Bigfoot Smokestone, i believe the guys local to me as i’m in Stroud now. Anyone know if it actually was Harris who built them?

Me, dated god knows when. Headed over Old Coach Road to Penrith after a weekend in the Lakes staying at Cat Bells camping barn.

I used to own a bike maintainance book written by Brant too, but can’t find it at present.

😀

Bought these at a chain of used books called Half Price Books IIRC. Lots of day-glo colors…

I had this one since not long after I bought my first mountain bike. 😳

Orange jacket above – Andy Pegg?

Andy Pegg?

Dunno, i know of him as the SS racer before the niche of SS, the photo is from the Long Mynd route, mentions a Brendon & Roger from a local MTB club.

And of course

How could I forget? 😳
