I am looking forward to some fun racing with BHPC or is that simply racing for fun?
A rigid frame rim brake high racer seems to me a good first choice.
tatty / requires work / good condition all offers considered.

Yep - Sounds like a good choice as long as you're reasonably tall... Worth posting on our Facebook Group as well as that sees more traffic than the forum these days.
Hope to see you at an event soon!!

Yes, thanks have seen that  - Not far from my home but don't really think it's a machine to learn with...

A friend of mine got the equivalent low-racer. Once he steepened the seat angle a bit and reduced the tiller length, he could ride it without dramas. A high-racer is easier to balance than a low-racer.
