I'm just about to complete my bike and I was wondering how many other UK riders are out there??

Actually, thats not quite true, since the photo was taken I discovered that the exhaust fouled the downtube and pedal arm so I have had to swap the mounts around and extend the chain

Hi Bomberman!

I live in Leeds and I am going to build a motor bicycle in the next few weeks, can you tell me where you got your bike from, or if you built it up yourself where did you get your engine / parts etc. Also I am trying to find out what motor bicycles are like for riding offroad, nothing too hardcore like, just riding through woods / fields. moorland etc. Plus is it possible to make a mountain bike into a motorised bicycle and still use the gears in combination with the engine. Obviously I have a lot to learn before I start buying engines etc but I cant wait to get started! I might get hold of an old mountain bike to use as a guinea pig first. I collect Raleigh Chopper bikes but I dont want to start on one of them before I know what I am doing! Anyway hope to hear from you sometime.

kind regards

Johnny
