You are an ad mans dream..... You will be buying one of them new fangled carbon framed gravel bikes with hydraulic discs next

Funnily enough i saw a Bianchi electric bike on e bay the other day. It's just short of 4 grand and has a 55 Cm frame. Way too much for me to pay for a bike and too small for me(i usually have a 57/58 Cm frame),but i was soooo tempted!

It would have only looked good with braces, skin tight jeans, a Crombie and the right colour Doc's (oxblood)

Oxblood Docs.
Been some years since my last pair.

Funnily enough i was only talking to my wife last night about a young lad (16) who is the son of a friend, he is tall and as fit as a butchers dog, he was riding one of these to the shop https://www.rutlandcycling.com/bike...c038eRz63JzdbmciG5EaAmezEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

Hi, honey, I'm home...
Another shift over, delivering approximately 48 tonnes of goodies to a supermarket that starts with 'M', ends with 'S' and has 'orrison' ' in the middle.

I don't like the look of that!
I'd rather have the Bianchi anyday!

I saw similar the other day. There's a local hill i huff and puff up. As i was walking down it,a bloke who looked about late 30's and quite athletic looking came flying up it on an electric bike.They make a kind of a humming sound and i always look for the large downtube,just to confirm my suspicions. He looked so smug flying up that hill,but i just thought 'lazy get'!!

Still have a pair, however they have never broken in properly like the last pair I had, they are only worn once in a while as i cant make them comfortable, they appear to be painted leather, not the original dyed

I have just given my mechanic an ultimatum, fix the van (cam sensor) it is not starting well, or I use somebody else, I have waited months for this to be fixed, first the storms meant that the part could not be shipped over, then the virus, he just texted me back and is picking the van up Tuesday lunch time...... we will see

Crikey! These have got a kick

I think the key statement on the pack is "perfect with beer" lots of beer
