Hey Thanks Marco.
I used to ride with you guys most Saturdays for about a year and a bit in about 2009/2009 ish but due to having a motirbike accident and then having twin boys and my job I totally had to give up pretty much everything.
My new bike is currently on order, either a Trek 2.3 a Trek 2.5 or a Biacnhi Via 7 Nirone Veloce. I've got to nip down to test them all to decide. My last bike was a Trek 1500 /Ultegra.
My plan is to start cycling to work again then hopefully get some fitness back for the Saturday rides again then I plan to get into some Cat4 racing with maybe the Surrey Cycling Leage. Im nipping down to Goodwood on Sunday for a look.
Had some fun totally re-ordering everything for my bike, treated myself to a Polar CS500 CAD, (the wife thinks they cost £19.99)
Wheels, hmmmm, Whoa, Wheels, arent they great, Already wanna upgrade, Been looking at the Dura Ace 24 and HED Ardennes SL and possibly going back to the Kysrium SL's.
Been a fantastic tour also, with Cav being awesome on the sprints, shame he got deducted those 10 points and the 20 the other day, i really wanna see him in Green as he is one awesome sprinter.
Also thought the A.Schleck attack yesterday was awesome, fantastic to watch and repsect to C.Evans. I really think whoever wins totally desereves it this year.
Anyways, I hope to see you one Saturday morning with my nice new bike for a break in ride to the cafe. Be gently, Ive not ridden for 2 years, . Also hope to be doing the London - Southampton ride for BHF in August.
Enjoy
Simon
