Kelvin’s King of Mercia

Dear Jane, Ray and all at Mercian, I finally get around to sending you some photos of my built up frame. As I hope you can see from the snaps, the frame has been built up with love and a scattering of Italian jewels! Funnily enough, before I got the frame I was ‘window shopping’…

Early training
