Ok it's not a Giant but it's an XXL Scott

Is that the church in Sherburn in Elemet?
The bike is nice but I dont like the tube bag.

No, the church is at Aberford.
The tube bag is there for my phone (which won't safely go in a jersey pocket), and a few essentials - like Haribo and Snickers

I know the one, its on the main street I think.
Is that bike better than the Boardmans do you think? are you enjoying it?

It's subjective, but it does feel better than the Road Comp it replaced - but it should be given how much more it cost and that it has 105 rather than Sora.
Enjoying it? Absolutely - it rides wonderfully and it's got a real quality feel to it. It's currently my go to bike and I'd definitely buy another Giant when the time comes.

I know that place very well. Back in the day Falkirk CTC had this as a regular Sunday ride & the waterfalls were the Summer picnic venue. I can't remember the name of the waterfall though & Google maps isn't helping. The wind farm is definitely new. It's a great area & so close to civilization. Not Denny.

Looks gorgeous but my back is aching just looking at that riding position.

Happy new bike and may you have many safe miles on it/him/her.

Strangely, exact same geometry as the Rose carbon road bike (from 2012) it's replacing, it looks really racy but actually feels the same as my other bikes.

After my recent fall at least the bike is ready to roll again. I'd hoped to get out today but my leg's still not working properly...
