Title: Y2K xTc in NYC (NATO)
Post by: Mr S USA on December 20, 2003, 06:47:18 am

Wow!  A member's forum!  Here's mine:

(http://C:\WINDOWS\Profiles\merin000\Desktop\75762089jFdBmW_ph.jpg)

It's a 2000 xTc (the first year) and falls somewhere between the current xTc and the SWB version -- the frame is lugged, with tour-ish geometry, but less tire clearance than the current ones. Between the S&S couplers, the sprung Brooks saddle, cyclo-cross levers for city traffic, the mini rack under the front bag and whatever junk is in the saddlebag from time to time, it's no lightweight. But I do love this bike!

[No, it doesn't have a horizontal top tube -- it's just that the kickstand has the rear wheel six inches off the ground]

Welcome aboard!  Another NYC person here too, cool!!  I can't see your bike though-red X-might want to try a different method for linking to it.

I am about to take delivery of a brand spanking new Thorn eXp!!  Maybe we can hook up and talk once I have my new baby delivered?!

Hope to see you around!

Making this up as I go along.  Do either of these work?

Nope, Red X still and the link says I don't have access to the page.  Try this-

1.  Copy and Paste the address of the Properties of your pic at the free hosting site you're using(to do this right click on the pic, select Properties, Copy).  Come here to the forum, create a response and type (http://right click and paste the address of your pic in between and then type)... and if that doesn't work....

2.  Try another free site like Yahoo Photos but make sure you select "Public"(which allows folks OTHER than you access to your photos)in the Edit Photo Album features.  Come back here and create a new hyperlink... as you've done above.

Welcome Peter, aka Mr S.

Please keep plugging away at that picture. I took me a few tries to get it right, too.

Sorry to be wasting so much of everyone's time.  Let's try again:

Did that work? It did on "Preview", but then, so did the first try!

I am sitting here with bated breath waiting for this wondercycle to appear.. Sorry that I cannot help but I am just able enough to press the right buttons to write simple messages.
This comes to you from the even more beautiful countryside (well almost) south of GB's capital.
