Almost as much as my legs did.........sat at home misty eyed wishing I could do it all again!!

I'm sat at home wishing I could 'do it' (cycling, that is ) at all.

The new physio has warned me off cycling until she's had a chance to 'fix' things. Several weeks, at least, is her estimate...

Really sorry to hear that, makes me realise how fortunate I have been over the past few weeks!! Back to reality now, m priority has to be to find another contract, sadly not good enough to make money from riding my bike so it's time to jump back into the hamster wheel!

If you fancy a coffee or sumfink drop me an IM.....

Same here mate. No riding for 6 to 8 weeks, waiting on an MRI to see if I require surgery. Not H!

My warranty replacement frame and a couple of new tyres makes my bike feel like new again.

The single speed dream starts here!

You will enjoy that. I find I grab mine most of the time during the winter, less so atm.

Trigger's bike

Bought the 5.9 in early March and probably managed about 1300 miles on it so far including plenty of 80+ miles. THE most comfortable bike I have owned ... absolutely feel at home riding it. Now with 38mm carbon clinchers which I'll be testing at the weekend.

Looks great. Where did you get the wheels from?

[JEA1K]

Thanks! They're from Wheelsmith ... It's their own hub on 38mm Gigantex rims. Not had chance to try them out just yet. Weight is similar to the standard Bontrager rxl wheels so be interesting to see the difference when they're up at a decent pace.

New Wheels, after I bent a rim and buckled the other hitting a pot hole at 32mph!

I've just fitted a set of these to my commuter, needed truing out of the box, was getting a lot of brake rub when out of the saddle.

I think I may need to do mine too, hoped they'd go straight on. I bought the 30mm depth/bladed spoke version. Will get them trued soon.

New Wilier Twin Blade... looking forward to taking it out

Yeah 120c And first time out I shaved 7 seconds off one of my regular trails (1:30 down to 1:23) It really is a weapon

Canyon Ultimate CF 9.0. About 7.4kg including pedals and bottle cages. Can't wait to get out and ride it.

Bit the bullet recently and ordered some chinese carbon clinchers from eBay. Really impressed so far. They have transformed the bike!

Few more bits to sort like bar/stem as I can definitely get shorter/lower. I've also got a set of Force shifters and mechs to fit. Other than that, I love it!
