Project Peugeot

Project Peugeot is born, not sure what to do with her yet as I'm looking at a couple of completed single speeds on ebay.  Probably be another single speed though, one thing for sure I'll keep it as original as I can, not sure of her age yet, I shall endeavour to find out though.

Route plotted, ready to go :)

One bike man (for now)

For a short (hopefully) period of time I am a one bike man, the Giant NRS has gone via fleabay (for an excellent price).  So what next?  The brief is a retro (probably Peugeot) donor to be converted to single speed, something I can have a blast on but still use for family rides on the river bank, multi purpose but more racy than not.

Currently got my eye on a Giant Bowery on ebay,  I've got a top line price in mind though and I'm not going over that, after all this is only a second bike, one for a bit of fun and there in case the Trek is ever off road.

Greenhouse earning it's keep

Things are really starting to kick off in the greenhouse now after many seeds sprouting and being nursed into the garden, Tomato's, Celery, Cucumber, Melons and freshly sown Rhubarb are in abundance

At home in the garden

Got the salad and squash patch at home tidied up at last, it's looking good, already we have been eating courgette's, potatoes, lettuce, radish and strawberries from the garden.

New wheels/First real upgrade

Treat myself/the bike to a set of new wheels with the impending funds from the sale of my Giant NRS.  When the BB was replaced this week the freewheel body was found to be grumbling a little too, so with an upgrade always being on the cards and a renovation project coming soon it made sense to get some new wheels.  So the new Mavic Aksium's courtesy of TS Bikes are going on the Trek and the Bonty's off the Trek will be donor wheels for the single speed project.
