So I picked up my new bike today. Its a Carrera Zelos womens model (see Halfords link).

I had a very low budget (student) but It is my first road bike and infact my first bike in about 10 years. Not much compared to some bikes on here but still super stoked. It was one of the only bikes small enough for me (46cm) and they still had to saw some of the seat post off (must have teeny legs). I also got them to fit the water bottle holder and got myself a helmet to keep the noggin happy.

Let the addiction begin!!

p.s. Sorry for the messy room and the cookie monster underwear hanging in the background....can I blame being a student for that aswell??

    46cm frame? Positively huge compared to Laura Trott's 42cm Colnago ;-)

    Have fun riding!

    Outstanding machine madam. Make sure it doesn't get nicked, students are easy victims.

    There like a light brown color!!! Gold would be pretty funky though!
