... the clocks change and riding can be done after work, not only at weekends.

What else are you looking forward to?

Only post if you mean it as well, not just for the sake of posting, it makes the threads more interesting to read.

    Getting home tonight a finding that in the post there has been delivered from merlin:
    2 x hope pro II + mavic XM719 wheels,
    sram pg980 cassette with pc 981 chain (numbers are prob wrong, its the 2nd top ones)
    husslefelt bars and stem combo
    which will enable me to build up both my on-one inbred as a single speed pub/commuter bike and an attack trail for XC in one go!
    then very soon I shall also be buying a "new" 2007 marin quake 7.3
    and then after that hope m4 brakes and fox forks for the attack trail.

    is that enough to look forward too?
    can't wait to ride after work too. either up the local hill just down the road from work or stop by the skatepark on my bmx on the way home. oooooooh cannot wait!

    You see I'd love to feel excited about an after work ride but I get home in the dark and its rubbish and its also cold and windy, roll on the clocks going back!
  • I'm looking forward to when...

    The trails dry up a tad,oh,and evening riding like you because then I can ride with my mate.

    My Cannondale arrives in April ( or more likely..June).

    Also looking forward to Indy 4 :wink:
    Da da da daaah,da da daaaah,da da da daah,da da dah dah daaaaa.

    Looking forward to getting my shock (rear) back from Mojo and fitting it to my attack trail, then getting my X9 kit on it and having the CK crown race fitted (still have not had it done yet but in all fairness I haven't ridden the bike yet as the shock went)

    that's what I am looking forward to...

    oh and taking my mythic out on sunday for her maiden voyage :D

    I try SPD's for the first time, pedals and shoes both here now.

    From what I've read it'll either revolutionise my riding or end in a mangled embarassing mess, hopefully the former! :)

    and it'll turn out as the latter followed a couple of weeks later by the former? :)

    yep looking forward to the clocks going forward. I'm also looking forward to having 2 and a half weeks off work from today because I got my new Felt Virtue last Monday and have only had one muddy ride on it so far. Bring on the mud :lol:

    This sounds nice - Let us know how you get on, I'd never have thought Turkey was good for MTBing?
  • Ok so now I'm looking forward to my Commencal after cancelling the 'Dale.

    Also looking forward to tomorrow morning because every Monday morning means 5 glorious days off work.

    Looking forward to warm sunny days (yep,both of 'em).

    And finally,I think I'm going to bog off to Whistler next year,so looking forward to that!
