I've turned into exactly the sort of nerd that I had hoped to avoid being. When I finished dinner last night instead of picking up the guitar, reading a book or listening to some music I started messing about with the Holdsworth again. I know that objectively it is just an old bike but somehow working on it seems more appealing than the giants of 19th century fiction.
Last night I took a scalpel to the brake hoods to remove all the rubbery goop. No doubt I’ll find out why it was there and why I shouldn’t have taken it off but I hope you will agree that it looks a whole lot better ‘sans goop’. I also removed and polished the pedal end caps.
