agreed with ebay, can get some right bargins, can also get some sh!tters so watch out what your bidding for.

look for a small cycle shop near you, they will be good too, the smaller ones seem to be more friendly wereas the bigger highstreet ones just want to take your money.



and as said look into the cycle to work scheme, ide be riding every day if i didnt live 15 miles (on a 70mph road which there is a crash pretty much every week so would rather not risk my life ) or about 23 miles on country roads :(

Get a quad mate much safer and plenty of fun in the wet  :cool:

But still sh1t in traffic. :laugh:


Look on Gumtree and eBay etc and get a decent second hand one. I paid £70 for my Trek 3700 and it is perfect for my needs.

I will be upgrading soon as I want something a little better, got my eye on a Boardman......... :cool:

I never got stuck in the traffic straight down the niddle and a quick rev for the ones that wont move over and your sorted  :grin:
