Lets see those bikes

Picked up a new road bike this weekend. Usually I run 5 miles 3 days a week but it’s been getting to my knees lately. Rode a little over 7 miles after work last night and it was very liberating though my choice of a very hilly route was brutal.

Lets see those bikes



My newest bike was picked up a couple of months ago and it s Riese and Muller Supercharger eBike. I bought it to commute to/from work (32 miles rnd trip) but with the WFH situation it’s lonely in the garage. I think I’m going to take the afternoon off tomorrow and get out for a mental health ride.

Nice bikes - Corona Crisis has actually had a positive effect on me where I have been put on Furlough by my company for 2 months and decided to use it as an opportunity to get fit again. Have 5 Road bikes in my garage - 2 1980’s steel framed bikes in bits ready to be restored / 1 of the last Aluminium framed Specialized Triathlon Time Trial bikes and 2 carbon framed bikes. Will post you a picture of my favourite one tomorrow as it is nearly 1am in the morning in the UK now - Raleigh USA Pro Team Carbon built up with Campagnolo 10 Speed Record and Campagnolo Neutron Ultra Wheels. I actually sold my Mint Oyster Precision Date to buy it about 6 years ago when I fell out of love with the 34mm size. Have been out on it twice in the last few days and has made me realise what I have been missing! All the best guys and stay safe!

Very nice! How was cycling in Dubai? And what’s the coolest place you’ve ever biked?
