Forum –
I was inspired by your story regarding members of Alison Homestead Men’s Shed, who restore old pushbikes to give to people in need. (Chronicle p1&14 Dec 16)
The day before it was published, we happened to be on the walkway at Honeysuckle in Newcastle, when we came across a very old bike that someone had retrieved from the Hunter River.
It must have been submerged for many decades. (see photo)
I feel it very unlikely that a restoration is possible, even for those talented members of the men’s shed!
