A new section is now up and running on retrobike - Auction Watch. This section keeps tabs on all of your favourite retro searches across ebay.co.uk, ebay.com and ebay.de.
The site has been up and running for four months now during which time we've had over 10000 visits. Not bad I reckon. The forum is always busy with a lot of great bikes to be seen in the Reader's Bikes section and a lot of real interesting scans (including some posted by a Mountain Bike legend) in the Scans section.
If you like the site why not link to us from your own site using this html-

If you do so drop us a note here and we'll return the favour.

As a taster here's a picture of the Mountain Goat voted best in show by one and all.
