Got a Specilized Allez 2006 Sport



Got it through the government Cycle to work scheme.

Bike cost £530, I make the payment from the top of my wage so save Tax and VAT and get top pay it up over the next 12 months. So this bike will only cost me £30 p/month = £360

Bought two new computers a few months ago the same way. I love company schemes......If only they did a drive to work scheme

An old Kona Stinky Dee-Lux. Done me proud. On my 4th frame though as they kept on cracking and snapping. Though they replaced it with a new version one a few years back for free which was nice.

Yea, used to race twice a month and go riding every weekend. Then foot and mouth happened and I couldn't go riding for ages and ages. Never really did any more racing after that

Been over to France quite a few times too, which was wicked

Ive got a stumpjumper in the garage aswell, it really needs to get used more though.
