Hi from Staffordshire, UK

[surplus 6]

been seeing some of the ace bikes you guys create on Facebook so I thought I'd join here and say hi.
got a couple of mountain bikes, one I try and ride as often as I can (so not often lol) the other needs a new lease of life, wasn't sure what to do with it until I looked through the gallery. Now I still have no idea but for the opposite reason, I now have too many ideas.

quick bit about me, wrong side of 45/slim/fit. but 2 of those should change the more I start to ride (I hope). in the middle of collecting parts to build a tadpole recumbent trike based on plans purchased from Atomic Zombie. As I have kids, and a wife who works at weekends I needed a hobby that could involve the kids, as motorcycle building/riding was out of the question, here I am. they will be able to be my test pilots for any new builds I have, my 9 yr old daughter already has here eye on a cruiser/chopper type bike.
right off to be nosey on the site.
