LRB News ! - Issue #8

 LRB Trophy Revealed !


Well fellas, here it is.  The coveted LRB trophy...This artisanal relic is what we all will be vying for at the inaugural L'enfer du Nord.  


                               


And what a masterwork it is.


Carefully hand-crafted artefacts, masterfully patined as though pulled from a badly crashed and discarded machine from years gone by, and appearing as though assembled with other left-over detritus from around the LRB Service Course, this piece has been drawn together with the sort of laser precision only possible with modern artisanal tools and techniques.


In order to take this beauty home as the centre-piece of your trophy cabinet, you will need to score points on the day in the following loose, and likely to change categories;


        1.  Bike selection and build + adherence to the budget.

        2.  Riding outfit and match to said bike.

        3.  Ride sense, course awareness, and souplesse ( read this how you will ).

        3.  Travel distance and commitment to making the start.


Here at LRB News! the anticipation is at fever pitch.  We can almost feel the tension out there, late at night while wrenching in the LRB Service Course.  The frustration, the desperate on-line purchasing and stress waiting on the delivery of those much needed mail satchels of parts.  


With ride builds nearing completion across the country, next issue we will reveal some images from our tech spy camera's that have been out snooping into sheds and under houses.

LRB News ! - Issue #9

LRB News ! Tech Spy Camera Reveals...  Hi all, and welcome to issue #9 of LRB News!  In the final week of build time before the big event, it seemed timely to send out our spy camera's to see what you all have been up to. Now Wes, it seems as though LRB has come around just in time to rescue your machine from a silent burial.  While I'm impressed by your under-floor insulation, and the bonfire-like stacking of flamable materials to near floor height, the team here at LRB News! have been wondering how on earth you have managed to dislodge the beast ?  And what else of value did you find on the way both in and out ?  Yes, look closely into the black centre ( at first glance we did wonder what this was a picture of exactly ).  A very tall skeleton lies in wait. Obviously your chosen steed has been sequestered away for quite some time ( juding by the life-time's worth of accumulated stuff piled in after it ) just waiting for the call to rise like a pheonix....
