If anyone does have red-white fade bar tape and a 34.9mm FD braze on adapter, let me know. Need them to complete the build.

MINI SWAP MEET STALLS
Held this Saturday 25 March between 10am and 2pm, at Canterbury Velodrome, Tempe. Held in the lower ground meeting room (indoors only). Largely interstate and regional sellers. Grab a bargain. All welcome.
The 2017 Sydney Classic Bicycle Show is currently being re-scheduled and all swap meet stalls will return again.
Looks like the show is cancelled. Some talk of it being moved to April 1st or 8th, but nothing confirmed as of yet.
A Message from Sydney Classic Bicycle Show:
Due to incessant rain we regret to announce that the 2017 Sydney Classic Bicycle Show has been cancelled. The infield of the velodrome is saturarated and unusable and more rain is forecast for the coming days and for Saturday. All payments will be refunded.
We anticipate re-scheduling the event and will let you know when this happens.
Our sincere apologies, we have worked hard to make this event a success however we feel we have no alternative to cancellation due to the extreme weather that Sydney has seen this month.
All the best
Sydney Classic Bicycle Show Team

Not eligible for the show or this forum as it is a 1973 Moto Guzzi 850 GT which was down at Moto Ciclio getting a blue slip and some work on the carbies.
I had forgotten how absolutely beautiful she is to ride (took me 3 years to rewire her...) and so any dry weekends might not be pedal powered for a while.
But if there's a retro ride on a wet day no problem.

How about we lock something in for the Easter long weekend?
That potentially gives us:
Friday 14th
Saturday 15th
Sunday 16th
Monday 17th
Also, a good route. Failing that, a Windsor run could do the trick.

Sorry for the late response. Most likely will be heading out for a late morning ride, my usual loop that you see me do on Strava.SteveTheTiger wrote:Im interested in a ride on Saturday morning.

Let's do one within the next couple of weekends. A leisurely stroll out to Windsor or a M7 looper perhaps?

Meet at the Plastic Bridge (formerly the Wooden Bridge) at Guildford.. you know the one. 7:30am
Coffee/food stop at Canley Vale as per usual. One of my regular cafe spots opened up there so decent espresso coffee is now available.
We'll be on new bikes - bring yours along too Bruce?

Ah well I can do it. Not sure if I bring the new toy - it is definitely slower an I won't have the Rocket to hang out with.
OK, 730 am at The Bridge Formerly Known As Wooden.
