Well, I'm another who had just joined after reading this post! I recently bought a 1990 Pioneer from a chap in Gilingham. Couldn't believe my luck when I went to collect it. I dont think it had seen 30 miles use in its life! Here is a pic of it the night I got it home..
I took it for a 27 mile ride across the Isle of Wight on Sunday with the good people of retrobike.co.uk (free plug for a great site!) and it rode a treat. Amazing to think that its 19 years old and I'm the first person to ride it in anger! Here's a pic at the top of one of the killer chalk climbs...
Would love to see some more of these cracking bikes if anyone has more! |
