Nothing has to change, its people who allow change to happen. Never happy with a perfect state of grace. Look at the rubbish bikes you have today. Disc brakes that keep rubbing, internal cable routing that takes hours to set up. Utter rubbish all made in China in sweat shops. A bit like the way the UK looks. One big Indian sweat shop.

i had the fortune of going on a couple of runs with Gary Dighton and his club mates, (i was a triathalete) when he lived in the Peterborough area, but stopped because of his sheer pace! he was such a nice guy (used to bump into him in the nightclubs in winter as well) a fantastic TT rider and an olympian amongst other acclolades so sad he took his own life..

Look at the bikes back then. Diamond frames traditional design. And now they look like mountain bikes with sloping top tubes. No wonder there are so many crashes.
