Just dropping in to say Hi, No doubt there will be many questions in the future,just waiting to get a free day to get across to my closest decathlon store to have a look at their Triban 3 and Triban 5, or possibly a 2nd hand Specialized Allez, we will see...

Pedals are ordered already, juat need to find a pair of shoes

A bit more about me as it was late when I came on forum.

I live in Lincoln, so a fairly flat place to ride, have a couple of friends with road bikes who often cycle 80 to 100 miles on a Saturday or Sunday and would love to eventually join them, as well as trying a few triathlons, nothing competitive.
