Haha feeling the love for the Falkirks!

Now just gotta hope I am in for my helmet arriving in the next couple of days. Still no idea if the one I bought is any good but it looks okay!

This mob, meet point is literally 2 mins from my flat. Also have a group which averages 14-16mph over a 45 mile ride which I should be okay with.

Shame Falkirk is a bit far away eh? haha!
My mate Nicholas Bone rides with them. Heard good things about the club.

Hope Sundays ride is a good un for ya. Where you's headed

Ah good stuff. Dunno what the route would be for Sunday. Doesn't look like it has been posted on their site yet.

I still don't think I'm ready for a club yet... Hope you have a good un on Sunday.

Well, I think I'm in for a torrid time tomorrow, Wattbike sent me a beginners guide and I'm going to do their three minute test.... 3 minutes he laughs, you need to do the 20 minute warm up first.

Once ive done that I'll have another read of the scary 150+ page think R0ddy posted for me...

Its a Specialized



























Only joking, the Roubaix is meant to be really comfortable to ride, and Ultegra Di2 is super.

Nowt wrong with it

Had a few specialized bikes and they were all good, no issues to report! Looks like it would be nice and comfortable too.

I am pretty cheap though so I would buy the 2015 version and save a good few quids. Also nice to see di2 on bikes starting to become 'affordable', kinda...
