I have been thinking that I ought to do a post summing up the pros and cons of my new bike, now that I’ve had it for almost three weeks – and over a hundred miles. But I will spare you all that and just say this: that whenever I walk into the shed to get it out for a ride, I catch sight of it leaning up against the wall and my heart does a little spring to see something so beautiful and to know that it’s all mine.
And that’s really all you need to know about it.
*Apologies to those of you checking in for a drystone dyking tutorial – I didn’t take my camera on the day and I’m still waiting on someone to send me some piccies before I can complete the post in a way that’s going to make any sense to anyone at all.

Congratulations…there’s something special in finding “the right bicycle”!

R::B – there is, isn’t there?
Flighty – thanks. And some not so slow as well, maybe…
