i found your story most interesting. what a great family heritage for bicylcing! i feel lucky to be the exception to the norm with regards to bob jackson. i have a 1974 bj. i have own many supposedly great bikes but this is at the top of my list. no chromed/ornate lugs just superb workmanship with reenforced fork and bottom bracket. i recently had the frame checked for aleignment and it was just perfect! i am sure that the woodrup frames were equally well made. ashamed the partnership didn't last.
