...the Trek hybrid I used to ride to the office (when I had one close enough) and the shops now has a new life in Southampton. Boy1 has cleaned it up (not that it was too bad) replaced the tyres and brake bits, set the handlebars to his liking and is using it as his campus runabout. I bought it new in 1999, so the bike is two years older than he is. It’s denied me the £60 I might have got for it in the classifieds but it’s nice to know it’s doing a job again. And I still like the colour.

Ideal for that purpose. Good idea.
I've got a circa 1989 Pacific hanging on my garage wall that I've always thought might come in handy for something. It's a mountain bike in name, but entirely primitive by today's standards. In it's, and my youth it has though seen some fairly full on action. I re-commissioned it a couple of years ago, just for the fun of it. Took it up a Welsh hill just remind me how it was.
It has been back on the wall since.
