Bought this little beauty from EBay - cheap as chips! It's about 30 years old, and needed a bit of TLC. After a full service, new bar tape, a new tyre and a favorite saddle it has a new lease of life. Rides well for an oldie!!

The Woodrup Project - Land's End to John O'Groats

Having been given a 1970s Woodrup frame, Graham set about rubbing down, re-spraying and adding decals before the long task of sourcing various components in order to build a touring bike suitable for cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats for charity. Friends gave him components they no longer needed; some pieces came from car boot sales and a few he bought new.

Finally - after a few test runs - Graham set off, riding solo and unsupported. He took just fourteen days to complete the 1100 mile challenge whilst raising money for Cancer Research, and camped most of the way. Along the route he met some amazing people, and had the most fantastic adventure! Graham is hugely indebted to family, friends and acquaintances who helped and supported - thank you - you know who you are!
