My purpose for creating these databases is simple. Insomnia is my saving grace, otherwise there would be no time for any of this. Not only do I have a full-time job (I run my own business restoring and selling vintage vehicles) and am a hands-on parent of a young child, but I spend a minimum 30 hours every week building, updating and maintaining these free websites to help you do your own research. To sift through information to try and find similar pictures to your unidentified bicycle would take me months, and I'm already doing similar research on my own bikes. With an estimated 15,000 bicycle manufacturers, the odds are stacked against me recognizing yours in any case, I do not claim to be an expert, just an assiduous recorder of information. The answer, in short, is that I do not have time to tell you either. ‘How old is my bicycle?' is a question I get asked a lot, nearly as much as: ‘I have a bicycle that looks like one of yours if I send you pictures please can you identify it for me?'
