Decided I needed an XC race bike and C2W became an option so, in theory, there should be a Scott Scale in a container somewhere with my name on it. :)

    Already thinking of upgrades. Think I may need to go past the shop to upgrade straight to a better model. :o

    You already have storage space that's big enough? :)

    Nope, but given that I am a bachelor again, there is really no such thing as not enough storage space!

    You would think so but what happens when family want to descend?

    I'm thinking of turning my spare room into my bike room, but I may have to have a single bed in it. On the other hand, this will discourage long-stayers 8)

    :) Dad is currently staying with me and is happily sharing the room with 3 bikes, 3 frames a workstand and a few spare pairs of wheels. All's good!

    (I might need a bigger flat)

    Yep, it's Ti.

    And, starting in roughly a month from now, I am hoping to start taking orders for custom built-to-order framesets. :) (it has been a long slog)
