Monday. Anybody going? I might have a look round as it's local, assuming no family commitments.

    I'm not doing anything monday so I might come. Although heart is set on an Enigma at the moment I could be tempted....

    Worth a look as it's local and you can't normally try them. Let me know if you do go and we can meet up, possibly sneak a drink too.

    120kgs limit on Canyon frames, I'm not that big....... How about late morning say 11am followed by a beer / lunch somewhere after.... Unless it raining I'll be on the bike...

    One of my neighbours bought a Canyon because they do huge. I reckon he was a good chunk over 120kg. He's 6'8" mind.

    That's one smart move setting up shop in spitting distance of RP I just hope they allow people to test the bike further than the car park
    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    Yeah, I'd guess there aren't too many people insane enough to drive to the factory and then come back empty handed.....

    Chap at work is soon to take delivery of a Canyon Ultimate CF SLX 9.0 Ltd. Campag Super Record EPS plus all the trimmings.
    There will be bike envy. His purchase may end up costing me money once I've seen it...

    Gah, Looks like I can't make it. My wife wants us to have a day out and Monday is the only free day.
