Freecycle build = LCEF donation

Well fuck me sideways! I'm still in shock! Got the email last night when I was playing Monopoly :D (I won that too)!

Thank you to Apollo for organising it, and everyone who donated. Congrats to Sabine as well!

An extra £50 will be winging it's way to LCEF as well, I feel that's a fair shout as I wouldn't have a bike without them or the competition.

I also promise to keep the bike and if I ever sell it I'll keep the sale within the forum and the money to the LCEF.

Thanks again everybody!

still buzzing

When do you want to collect? Sabine is coming on Sunday at 11:30-12

would be cool if you could make that to get a pic of the two of you with the bikes!

I can deal with that! Whereabouts will the pick up be?

Results are in!
Peugeot: Sabine Rosenkranz
Langster: James Robinson
Well done!

Damn them, damn them both to Hoxton. I hope their vegetable patches are only moderately productive this year and their front door keys get caught on pocket threads when they're in a bit of a hurry.

Will the powers that be not order a recount, conduct an enquiry, convene a grand jury, run a similar raffle next year so that I can have another shot at winning a sweet forum freecycle ride? I swear that I won't rest until I have justice, my honour is restored or I can buy a few more tickets for this noble cause.

You the man apollo. Great fun!

More pics

I'll email u

ooh winner of the Peugeot is on here too :) "dalstonrosi"

She came to Drag Sprints a few years back.

Here's an idea. Post parts that you would be willing to freecycle, we build a bike, and auction it off on here with all profits going to the LCEF. I'm happy to collect parts from Compass Beers and store/build the bike.

what a journey! enjoy your new rides Sabine & James :)

euph?

THEY KNOW EACHOTHER? treachery

congrats.

haha nope, but they came at the same time for the picture!

You might want to re-phrase that, Apollo ...

I kind of miss this project. Was definitely the most productive thing I've done in 2013. Might have to do another one soon.

In srbja?

ha, no, when I return ;)

Aw yay we're not losing you for everrrr.

Does anyone fancy doing a 2014 version of this?

Thought had crossed my mind.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, but it will be markedly harder for me now that I'm not freelancing any more.

Definitely keen if I can get help with collecting parts!

I've got this frame going spare (albeit dibs by a couple of people) but I'm sure theyd understand.

in fact, i've probably got most of the original chainset, front and rear derailleur, brakes and levers for the Peugeot....
