I'm laid in bed checking my emails but I really should go downstairs.. There is 2011 Carrera TDF waiting for me in the kitchen that I bought yesterday evening off the t'interweb, she is gorgeous.. the guy I bought it off clearly had too much money and let it go stupidly cheap.. I paid less for it than I spent on a tyre on my hybrid.

Our lass told me she doesn't like it because it's yellow and that I'm a saddo for getting excited about it.. but as she named my other bike Maurice she wants this one to be called Connie, I suppose I can live with that.

    Nice, but a yellow TdF must be called a Wiggo surely?

    I paid £260 for mine brand new from Halfrauds and to be far it's ok. Had no problems with it. It's over geared though.
    The only disability in life is a poor attitude.
