Andy Wise commented on Susan's event Sydney Tweed Ride 2010"Due to a prior engagement I will have to miss out.

"Hi Rob
as I see it, this is a Left side drive line?. Am I seeing this right or is it a bit of photo trickery?
I was at Mick Mazza last week and picked up a ex Frank Conciecao, so now it's in Fraks shop getting a service."
Andy Wise left a comment for Neil Alexander"I would say your name rang a bell to him but we did not discuss further( selfish me). He was tickled that I had rang and asked ( and I don't know him) I'm sure he would be happy to chat to you with your biking past. Nothing to loose!"
Neil Alexander left a comment for Andy Wise"Did he remember me? Neil Irvine? I recall we did an Audax event together out of Goulburn once but that would be mid '80s at the latest. Oh, and I bought an old pair of Karrimor front panniers from him in about 1981! No contact since that…"
Andy Wise left a comment for Neil Alexander"Yep, I think I cried when I got it back also, that was about 27 yrs ago. Very lucky indeed. Frank Paino had it come into his shop to be painted or something like that. I just rang CK and he has sent all transfers to Star Enamellers @ Bankstown. I…"
Neil Alexander left a comment for Andy Wise"You mean your CK bike was stolen but you got it back? That's lucky!"
Andy Wise left a comment for Neil Alexander"Thanks Neil, I will refer to your previous post with details. As it turns out I am now living at Kenso, maybe 10 min ride. Long story short, my bike was previously stolen and repainted etc so I'm looking for transfers for a resto.
Thanks,…"
Neil Alexander left a comment for Andy Wise"Hi Andy. Glad to help, if I can. Indeed, Clay was building frames in the '80s. I never could afford one of his then but a lot of people thought he was the best builder. I don't think he builds frames any more but he is still living in the…"
Andy Wise left a comment for Neil Alexander"Hi Neil, I hope you don't mind me asking you having never met before.
I came across a post (Feb 09) by you, refering to a Clay Kesting. I had a touring frame built by CK "about" 1980 and I am doing some research on the frame. So my…"

- Hi Andy. Glad to help, if I can. Indeed, Clay was building frames in the '80s. I never could afford one of his then but a lot of people thought he was the best builder. I don't think he builds frames any more but he is still living in the eastern suburbs, I believe. I am sure a search of the online White Pages would turn him up.
