I need to get a set of good night lights as most of my uni mates go on epic evening adventures. I can't really use them in lincolnshire as chances are people will think I am a poacher and I will get shot at throughout the ride (im not even joking)

I'd like to save some cash to get a nice bike with.  I can't decide though whether to get a nike mountain/XC bike, or a proper rode bike.

I love having fun off road, but would like to do some long distance rides as well.

The clicking is from the GoPro rattling around in its plastic case and is very annoying.

I keep looking at some new forks :lipsrsealed: Got them added to my basket just waiting for me to hit confirm :lipsrsealed:
