    It is a slippery slope of addiction, first it's a road bike, next it's Lycra shorts, bib tights, carbon soled shoes and then .....

    Shaving your legs!!! :lol:

    Seriously, enjoy, it's great to get out and feel the benefits.

    Well done mate. Ive only been back on 2 wheels for a week or so, but I'm reaping the benefits already!
    Not at 14.5 st yet, but weighed in at 15.8 yesterday. Was 17.9 in February :shock:

    How addictive! I replaced my 17 year old MTB (which I had probably used <50 times) with a Boardman Hybrid Pro last week. Been out most days so far. And buying the bike is only the start. Already bought new pedals, shoes, shorts, top, bar ends. And have seen 14.2 on the scales for the first time in at least a year!
