remember this reply when the crudcatcher awards come around later this year, thats the funniest post ever!

UH DH

To break the flow a little, yep it's a GT IT1, and I have one sat in a shed outside waiting for some brakes. Very nice and smooth when it works right, but so many fiddly bits that are seemingly designed to just snap, and cos they were from before GT went bust, you can't get spares.

That said, they rode well and sold me on the idea of gearbox bikes to the point that I got myself a Zerode, which according to the guy who designed them, was inspired by the IT1.

If you get a chance, try the GT out, it's pretty nice, if it's not broken. Which it probably will be.

I'm honoured. I may be getting ahead of myself but...

I couldnt have done it without the birlliant support of my friends and family, the fantastic spirit of the CrudCatcher and last but not least, the systematic abuse of GT by his close family members. Take a bow GT, take a bow*.
