Subject: [CR]MKM and Wes Mason framesets

Following an email from fellow List member Derek Wilburn about MKM framesets, I have managed to track down in the wilds of South Wales, Wes Mason, the only surviving member of the triumvirate - Mason, Kitching and Metcalfe that was MKM Cycles. When MKM was sold on to other owners Wes went on to found his own successful frame-building business. A former Pro racing cyclist with Carlton Cycles and Commonwealth Gold Medal winner in the 60s, Wes had never heard of the CR List...but has now applied to join..if he can understand Dale's entrance requirements and press the correct buttons on his computer. A fellow Yorkshireman, Wes is happier with a torch in his hand than a "mouse".

In passing...he mentioned that if anyone on the List is looking for a rare Wes Mason tandem..he has one for sale. Unfortunately he can no longer ride it following some problems with his lower back.. His email address is ..wesleymason@tiscali.co.uk.
