Ohhhhhhhhh yas!

Being broken down and crated up as we speak by the guys at Walkers Cycles who also threw in a pair of Endura Humvee shorts with liners

Also cancelled my order for the reverb (too big for the edison) and ordered a KS i7 from Wiggle:



Have returned the stuff previously ordered from SuperStar to be replaced with the following:

i7 Colour/Remote Upgrade Kit - Green
Nano Through Pedals in Gunmetal Grey with Green pins
Grey SS grips with Lime lockrings and bar ends
Superstar balance seatclamp - lime

With all this lime, I feel I should order some string and a jar of liver too.

thought you'd ordered a canyon?? they look far nicer than the edison ....

cat_with_no_tail

Cancelled the Canyon.

I've wanted an Edison for a few years now, but every time I go to get one, I always end up going for something else at the last minute.

Cat With No Tail I'm glad you're getting a proper bike again! Bionicons are weird, but a friend had one, and I have to say, I was impressed.

Just won the set of Rev's I was bidding on from ebay.

-Brand new and unused
-RLT Dual Air model
-150mm travel
-15mm Maxle Lite
-Remote Pop-Loc

For £275+£13 delivery. :P

They were at £220 all the way down to 1m but obviously someone else wanted them so in those last few seconds they jumped to £240, then to £250, then £265, then finished at £275. Fortunately my £286 maximum bid was enough today.

i couldnt resist for that price, a guy at work bought them and said they took his oakley lenses! i am now intrigued!

also being able to video the commute/forest rides/duathlons might be well worth it!

I'd be interested to see what the view comes out like? I have perscription Oakleys in half jacket flavour so the lenses look like they should pop right in?

No No my delivery from DX. headphones, wii controler and torch clamp bits.
but it was roughly the same when i orderd my lights from them.

cat_with_no_tail

ahhhhhhhh now I see!

I just ordered the DVD Seasons.

Have streamed it before, but it's not the same thing imho. Looking forward to watching it on the big telly with proper sound, rather than on the laptop through the crappy speakers.

Ordered from CRC too, so I may also have ordered a few mobile top-ups without realizing
Hoping it's pretty quiet at CRC this week so I might get it tomorrow

Where from? How much? Does it taste nice? does it work?

Been off the bike for 4 months now. Will be back on the bike again from next week and making a big effort to shift some of this weight I've put on.

Amazon, £28 for the 1.2Kg one, yes it works, takes some will power in the first few days (i find rice cakes work to tied you over) Banana flavour works for me, Strawberry is too fake and chocolate, well it just aint chocolate!

On another note

A SLX Shadow rear mech and cable coutesy of Merlins VIP weekend sale on transmissions stuffs.

cat_with_no_tail

Cheers.

Shouldn't take too much of an effort to lose some of this weight. Just seems I've fallen into some bad habits since being off the bike. Skipping breakfast, snacking, fizzy pop, stuff like that.

It dosent help that we have cupboards at work stuffed full of free shortcake, kit-kats, clubs etc and a drink machine full of bottles of coke and irn bru, also free.
