Will the sale include the block of wood under the side stand? Firewoods not cheap this winter

IMO - The DRs are excellent machines. It just takes a while to get used back used to the slower balance and momentum of road bikes again.

Beginners adv bike my arse - I'd happily still own one! Mongrel's Adv bike perhaps? But yeah, not a road bike (despire doing the DB1k on it!)

Good luck with it man.

I'd really like to have a go at a 3-hour cross country on one.

See how it stacks up to the current cross country weapon.

Do you mean a current cross country weapon or your current cross country weapon?

Dunno. That's a solid block of Rimu. I may have to change extra for that.

That would be taking the piss a bit on a 10000 km bike.

Actualy, I ran out of time to do all that.
