The most famous bike you have riden ?
Discussion
This is a good one.... I once had a spin on a very special Carbon Fibre DUCATI pushbike, one of only 20 built ever and one each given personally to the Ducati Motorcycle racers of the era,team principles etc. The one I rode had "Reuben Xaus" tattooed one the side, but apparently it was, aham, borrowed from Silverstone about 5 years ago while parked up by Mr. Xaus ( never heard of him at the time ). Asked no questions, it was hanging on a wall being displayed and the guy offered me a ride ( he was not the culprit who took it! ) Very nice, had semi-automatic gears and some electrics were hidden in the carbon frame, estimate was they cost over £10k each to produce but you could not buy one, only cheaper look-alikes from Ducati motorbike dealers ( still several thousand each )
Didn't ride it, but was riding the other weekend with a lad who has an ex-Thomas Vanderham, Evil. For those 'who know', this is the dayglo yellow bike that he rides on the recent "Follow Me" mtb video.
From one careful owner, to another.... not. (The guy jumps stuff I can barely bring mysef to look at.)

I own a Raleigh team bike from the 80's. It's in the iconic Panasonic/Weinmann colours. It is thought that it was built for Malc Elliott to be used as a winter bike. He can't have been big into his winter training regime back then because when I bought it the bike was practically brand new.
