There's a few pages missing. It's not that I messed it up!
Great stuff.
I love the act someone is wearing jeans in the national champs.... Someone else with a rucksack.
Great, just had a read with my morning cup of coffee and I am set up for the day. My old lbs shop that no longer exists is in the shop listings as well. I have their old work stand sat in my kitchen.
Are there any other old mags online.?
There is a live Gaye Bykers on Acid cd, a bootleg from Robber the bass player. In the middle Mary (the male vocalist ) says....
"My t shirt reads bicycle action, bicycle action, action being he operative word, have you heard".
Maybe he was a subscriber..?
Those scans are a memory jogger for sure.
Very nice, thanks for sharing 😀
That's great!
Loving that 'our' Tony Doyle had his own column in a bike mag 25 years ago: he is aging well. 😀
The guys over at retrobike would like this. They have a lot of articles and mags scanned from back in the day.
I remember watching Dave LeGrys on Record Breakers....and Raleigh's glory days how times have changed?... the only things that haven't changed are Brooks saddles!
Is the Tony Doyle on page 16 Jedi? Would fit with his history I think.
Excellent - I've seen the future and it is "Index shifting" Wow!
Dear oh dear. Don't young people learn any history these days?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Doyle_(cyclist)
Interesting to see a subscriber writing a letter about not getting their T-shirt. They also offered T-shirts for any news cuttings submitted by readers that were published. Still waiting for mine twenty five years later.
Also funny to see Mick Ives winning the vets Cross champs for the third time on page 6. Some things don't change:
http://www.miracing.co.uk/riders/mick-ives/
Such a bad example to our young readers. Mods please remove.
I've got a few pages from other mags to scan. One has a trip up Ben Nevis..
