L'Eroica 2013

After the three musketeers that are the McCormack family had such a great time at L'eroica last year I guess it was inevitable that we should decide to join them for this years ride. Don't know how we are going to arrange the accommodation and transportation but an adventure awaits...

Like all best plans ours has been hatched in the pub. The Flask in Highgate to be exact after a cold and wet ride around the hillocks of North London. The plan is for a team of four. Over the next few months we are going to build up classic British lighweights, all 531 tubing, each from a different manufacturer. Prepare them in our very own style, stripping back and four dip chroming the frame, though this time thinking of adding something a little patriotic, maybe a Union Jack on the rear stays or something similar ... something a little bit 'Italian Job'...

So first up has to be the Hetchins we have, there will be a fight to ride this one, but I'm sure the frame fits me best!

See attached a photo of the little beauty and will update as we progress...
