I’ve just finished building up a new frame for my Xmas pressie to me. I’ve never had such a pita frame to build as almost every step resulted in problems and setbacks and more than usual cuts and nicks and squishes of my fingers! I’ve just installed a front fender and some how managed to trap my fingers between the fork and wheel, a definite first for me. I’m thinking this bike doesn’t like me and is going to kill me on my maiden ride at Llandegla. Think I will be wearing all my pads and a full face…….

Ah well never mind, a fender will be no good at Llandegla anyway, you’ll want a mudguard there.

Sorry about the squashed fingers.
