Im back!

Postby Daddy Fungus » Sun Nov 02, 2008 11:39 am

After a very long time spent off the road due to mechanical failure/broken limbs/abject poverty im back! I rustled up some cash for a Giant Bowery and have been getting used to being back in traffic. What a great feeling, this bike rides real nice.

Just in time for winter. Hooray, i hate the cold.

me too, in a strange way. it was pretty crap at the time, but it was 250 'free' km a week, which i always appreciated in the spring.

A guy called Graham said he was organising an alleycat for the 20somethingth of November, but he hasn't given me any more details since then.

I'm thinking of organising an xmas 10 mile time trial... then again... more drunk drivers on the road at xmas so maybe not such a good idea...
