Brick update
Oct. 9th, 2012 05:37 pmPetrol tank is holding, but I've decided that selling it is probably my best option; anything more serious will be well beyond my limited mechanical skills, and I think infrequent riding is really not helping. In the long term I have to think very carefully about whether I really need a bike any more; I'm walking to work most days and public transport has improved since the Circle Line was rerouted, and once I retire I doubt I'll need a bike nearly often enough to make keeping one worthwhile.
Bottom line, I'll probably list it on eBay tomorrow, low starting price and no reserve, and see what happens. My guess is it'll go for about what I paid for it if I'm honest about the problems, since I've added luggage which will put the price up a little, but that may be ridiculously optimistic.
