Title: Youngest Rohloff rider?
Post by: Robin Thorn on July 21, 2006, 03:12:03 pm
We'd be interested to find how old the youngest Rohloff rider is, here's our
offering.

Alastair Thorn, 8 year old son of Robin Thorn, seen here enjoying an evening
ride on his Raven Tour.

Alastair says:
"If I was on my old bike, I'd have been miles behind, is all the gears,
.........come on dad push"

He was also heard to comment:
"it's lucky dad's got a good job so he could afford to buy me this bike!"
Perhaps he has a point, a Rohloff hub could be an expensive choice for a
nipper, but with it lasting so long, as he grows, it will be relatively
cheap to replace the frame with a bigger one.
