Title: NBD!
Post by: MrBump on May 22, 2012, 10:30:50 AM

Yep, New Bike Day!

It's a Cannondale SL3.  Those lovely people over at Evans Cycles messed up my order, and to compensate they upgraded me to a way more expensive bike!  This sh!t NEVER happens to me!!!

Gotta love them...

I've been away from cycling for many years, and am not looking forward at all to the sore arse I know I'm going to get.  But very excited!!!

Absolutely frigging AWESOME!!!

Just went for a half hour thrash around the woods - incredible!  I'm sweating like a barsteward!

Used to ride a lot when I was younger, proper riding, tours around the Lakes and Peaks etc.  But only road riding.

I'm going to LOVE this off road stuff...

Looks like a sweet ride, congrats.

If I'd tie that to a lamp post on one of the streets here in Cologne, it would probably last an hour or two max :(

Don't worry about that, some of most exciting times of my life left me with a sore arse.

Nice bike.  :P
