| From: . (.) on 25 February 2003 | | &, presumably, the names of those who won the lights from the last issue. |
| From: Peter Eland ([email protected]) on 25 February 2003 | Yes, page 60. The lights are on their way to winners now: I'll do a website story shortly with all the names.
|
| From: andy scaife ([email protected]) on 25 February 2003 | | How about basing a caption competition around that front cover pic? What's that bloke saying to himself?? |
| From: helen hamilton ([email protected]) on 25 February 2003 | | How about "She must have strong arms to handle a head-angle like that." |
| From: JJ ([email protected]) on 25 February 2003 | | Who is it anyway, Like WOW. Is this what cycle couriers look like nowadays? |
| From: John Shackford (john.shackford@(nospam)blueyon) on 25 February 2003 | Peter,

Best regards in fun?

| From: Geoff Elliott ([email protected]) on 25 February 2003 | I wish you wouldn't whett everyone's appetite in this way. I can't wait to receive my copy. Are you going to produce binders?
Best wihes

| From: Ralf Grosser (buzzstarkbier@aol,com) on 26 February 2003 | The youg lady on the cover seems to be rideing a bike with the onelegged fork, that has become the trademark of all Burrows designs.
Ralf |
| From: Seamus ([email protected]) on 26 February 2003 | I bet I know who's going to get his copy last (again).
The Burrows mono-fork is 'cos Mike really hates front panniers.
The out-of-focus-man looks surprisingly like Tom Johnston.
So when am I getting my free lights then? |
| From: John J ([email protected]) on 26 February 2003 | >So when am I getting my free lights then? (Seamus)
When the evenings get light enough to cycle home without them I guess |
| From: mike ([email protected]) on 26 February 2003 | the "Buyer's Guide: recumbent trikes:" may be too late if the mag doesn't get out in time, my father's just about to buy one and he was just about to make a decision.....
Five minutes on my Brox and he went recumbent mad!! |
| From: A (...) on 26 February 2003 | > The Burrows mono-fork is 'cos Mike really hates front panniers.
�10 prize for the first person to invent a mono-front pannier...
;-)
PS. It's not because a mono-fork makes tyre changes infintely easier, then?
|
| From: John J ([email protected]) on 26 February 2003 | I thought Mike B said it was because one wide stick* can be lighter and stronger than two thinner ones.
*Or possibly tubes? |
| From: andy scaife ([email protected]) on 27 February 2003 | | By the way guys, the bike is the 8-freight. I've ridden it and it's by far the best load bike ever built, whatever the article says. Sorry, not acquainted with the rider, but for a small consideration.... |
| From: Seamus ([email protected]) on 27 February 2003 | | I wonder if that god-like cycle design genius has read the BHPC rag yet and what he made of my experiment? |
| From: Legs Larry ([email protected]) on 03 March 2003 | | I've heard nothing so far, but I didn't go to Manchester yesterday either... |
| From: ken davsion (ginger.davison2002@btopenworld) on 04 March 2003 | so now I have three things to look forward too.
the spring,your great magazine,and longridge
towers weekend.the pirate |
| From: . (.) on 04 March 2003 | wHAT SPRING?
i AM SO GOING TO KILL THE IDIOT WHO THOUGHT THE CAPS LOCK KEY A GOOD IDEA.
Oh. THE Spring.
Presumably round about now Pete's is busily dropping copies into envelopes, licking down sticky then putting stamps on ready for tomorrow.
We all know who's getting his last, and justifiably so, but who'll be first I wonder?
Find out here tomorrow.
