Going to build up a hardpack gravel thing for weekend wandering.
Inspiration:


This is my starting point, I put this together last year and funny enough it fits in the category, but I'll be dismantling it and using just the frame and possibly fenders. It was fun for a while but not really into riding fixed as much as I wish I was.

Am I tired or is it left hand drive?
Looks like a fun build.....
 
Looks like you got a solid starting point. It's not often I see a bike with left-hand-drive!

Also, thanks for introducing me to a CCC song I hadn't heard before! Going to be listening to that for a while now.
Wow wel noticed! Had to check again to see it.

Awesome brush finish on the aluminium frame. Great start!
 
Life has intervened but I'm still aiming to complete this for my first build-off.

Scavenged a 2-speed kickback wheelset from the local classifieds...which helpfully came attached to a full frame/fork(in the background)so I guess I already have a basis for whatever the next build-off is!

De-stickered the rims and added 700x40 tires.
