I haven't got the cleats on yet, but already I feel 8.2% faster.

Well done. I bought a tin of paint t'other day, painted a cabinet I made, watched it dry. I'm sure you're ecstatic that I shared such an Earth-shatteringly exciting moment with you.

Incidentally, how long does it take for gloss paint to harden propply? I don't want to put owt on it, until it's hardened, or it'll leave marks in the paint.

Should a week be enough?

Real Paint takes a lot longer than 10 minutes to dry, son.

As you get older, you may learn that certain things are worth taking yer time over, rather than rush rush rush all over in a few seconds... ๐Ÿ˜‰

You'll love them. I bought 2011 Black & White ones a few months ago and they are really comfy. The boa system works really well and they are so light.

As someone who has to watch paint dry for a living I can tell you that some paints do dry in ten minutes. In fact getting a paint to dry in 10-30 minutes while still providing good performance (IS012944, C3) has been the focus of my last year at work.

Well hurry up and invent something that dries in 10-30 minutes, cos I'm an impatient bugger!

It's this 'one coat' B+Q gloss stuff. How long before I can place heavy objects pont?

I admit, they are a bit wendyballish, but they do grow on you (although I'd have preferred the white ones). Do also have a red and black bike, so they do match. And usually wear oversocks.

I like red shoes, you know what they say about people that wear red shoes. Which is actually true when I'm riding ๐Ÿ™‚

Edit; I'm thinking of fur coats aren't I ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Good shoes, top score in last months c+ shoe test. I would have bought them in white though.

Certainly look sleeker than the usual dual club footed mountain biker.
