Hundreds of photos, minutes book dating back to 1914, letters, prizes, newsletters and also colour film! All have since been donated to the Inner West Council library. https:...

Once we get it embroided it would be hard to return it Matt. You'll need to get the measurements correct. See men's chart above.
If it is any help, I have a 40inch or 101cm chest size. I have a sample 40 inch jersey for you to look at.

I am setting up one of my bikes with aero bars. Never used them before.
However, I am a little taller than the average person, and find the standard 28-30cm extension bars too short.
Does anyone have a old or surplus bars they can sell me? Pref something which is 40cm in length.
