Well it is time to hang up the trusty Felt F95 which I haven't really used the last 6 months :-(.

Offer came up at work for a ride to work voucher so I thought it's a good excuse to get my butt back in the saddle.

I have always wanted to try carbon and get at least a 105 group set, well thanks to Evans and my voucher I am now the proud owner of a Jamis Xenith Comp 2014 Road Bike.

I am over the moon and it is stunning, I can't wait to get back out in the fresh air.

Plus the best bit is it rrp for £1600 and they had it in the sale for £960 :D

    Merry Christmas and all and not to question the obvious, but if you didn't ride your old road bike for 6 months why did you buy a new one?

    As Matthew said lol.

    Had a back injury and then just haven't had the time to be honest :-)
