    There are some absolute abominations in this thread. Real eye scorers.

    Has Specsavers shut down while I've been away?

    But I have a house on the market, and once sold I am going to treat myself to one of these; (or maybe the Road Won for a little more practicality).

    Passed a fella on a Colnago Master X-Light this morning, one of the red and white ones with all the chrome looking particularly shiny in the spring sunlight. I never mentioned this in the SCR thread, because frankly, if I was on a bike as pretty as that, I'd want to make sure everyone had a good look at me riding it, so I won't count it.

    The picture does it no justice.

    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    I was lucky to buy mine when I was a younger. This is it now, very little change from over 20 years ago (new rims). I have sights on a carbon machine, but this is seriously good....

    At the moment don't have a dream bike, haven't seen one I like enough. Jake on the other hand has designed his own dream bike (and by designed, actually sat down, drawn it, autoCAD it and costed it...sad engineer that he is!) and plans on getting around to having it built one day. :shock:

    I'll make do with the bikes I have for the time being, they do the job :D
    Officers don't run, it's undignified and panics the men
