How to get that new bike.

A Place to idle the day away talking about anything you fancy. Expect to find cycling and non cycling topics inside

Nightmare....why did I read that....

I have been trying to supress a nagging need to buy some new wheels for quite a while now...

I have tried to say to myself that my current wheels (fulcrum 3) are good enough, but its not working...

Adams misfortune with the zips has done the trick to some extent. I no longer think its a good idea to get a set of deep section carbons...but a fancy set of fulcrum 1's or ksyrium es would be nice...

Any help in suppressing these urges would be good. After doing up my commuting bike (at a modest cost), the wife's antenna are on full power and I would never get away with it.

Ta,

Graham....

Don't start.....fulcrum zeros are too blingy. Now the new titanium coloured shamal ultras......groovy.....

Anyone want to buy my Fulcrums.....

Stop it....They would match and would look great......but no.....I need to service the car and lots of other stuff....

My latest tactic was to try to get myself to focus on the training side of things and recognise that once you have decent kit; getting the best stuff isn't really worth it. I didn't work though....I need some counselling....

Never suppress the urge for some bling, it's not healthy.
