Ahhh, the days when MBUK was a good read.

Always kept and eye out for Harrison

I loved Harrison purely for being such a DH god on an RTS.



Also the Mendip Brothers, and Summer; oh how I loved Summer. She was very cute when she rarely showed her face.

The one that I always remember is Mint and mate we on the top of grassy knoll with a massive machine gun aimed at the single cloud in an otherwise perfect blue sky.

All throughout my student-hood I had a lovely great big print off one of my favourite Mint-sauce 'episodes' that was mainly about Summer.

The last drop of moisture dissapearing leaving Corn fields, Vapour Trails in the sky, and Summer.

Bliss.

It got lost/damaged/dissapeared.

One of the very first things I do when I finally get my own place, is its getting a Mint Sauce print. Pride of place in the living room.

Indeed.

If there is one quick way of taking me back to better times when riding was all I cared about, this website is it.

Remember the free mint sauce socks MBUK gave away back in the early 90's? still got mine at the bottom of my sock draw. They'll be collectors items soon.

Ah- Mint Sauce.... brings back memories of University, long slow summer rides on old heavy early MTB's, the first dangerous single track downhills hanging off the back, lying in the grass with a Cider before the ride home- the days before I paid tax, bliss :-)

Always enjoyed an appearance by the Mendip brothers and trying to understand all the little celtic cryptology hidden in the background.

What was Mints GF called?

Having blown a rear tube on the way in this morning, the first strip on this thread made me smile....

This is one of my favs too. IIRC it was from a calendar? There was a great 'stop the planet, i want to get off' picture too. Having read MBUK since 1992, i've seen my fair share of Mint Sauce - i prefer the earlier ones.

My formative mountain biking years were spent on the south downs outside Brighton. Jo Burt captured everything about the experience perfectly, every glimpse of a Mint strip takes me back to some moment on a ride there.

Wish they would do some more sticker sets.
