Picture London, England back in the early spring of 1975. Mick Jones and Tony James have decided to form a rock n’ roll band and are auditioning band members. As was typical of the day they had posted an advertisement in Melody Maker. The band […]
Kreitler 4.5 Challenger Rollers
Even though once you learn you never forget, it never hurts to brush up on your cycling skills in the off-season. Specifically I’m talking riding rollers. Back in 1998 I purchased a pair of Kreitler Challenger Rollers after reading an article about the benefits of […]
