Custom painted Ridgeback 603

Bought as a pub beater, love it to bits. thrash it about, lock up, curb hop, sneakers and skids vibes. A few weeks ago just rode to go 180 skids in the snow. This bike, as an emotion, is the feeling of having a bike that is just nice to ride and cost me £50. So much fun collecting it. just train out ride 10 miles home.
