I don't actually [b]need[/b] a new bike, but it seems like it would be rude not to partake.
So - the runners and riders are:
1. Hefty 'core steel hardtail which can handle 1ft drops with a lardy pilot on board;
2. A cargo bike of some description - Kona Ute prolly; or
3. A new commuter.
Ideas and suggestion for any of the above - and no I don't want a cross bike, been there done that, didny like it.
can you redo it every year then?
"hardtail which can handle 1ft drops with a lardy pilot on board"
Thats just about anything then ..
Up that to (2-)3ft drops and a hardcore hardtail makes more sense
What do you currently have, where do you ride?
Kona Ute and commute with it
are you just as guilty of fiddling as an MP then?
Its come around again, the rules say I can use it again, I ride a bike of some description most days - I deserve it! 🙂
