My New Ride

[Ben...]

Decided to start riding to work as they are offering a cycle scheme where you don't pay tax, get a discount and pay it interest free over 18 months

My mate Tom is also getting one

So today I borrowed Tom's Specialized Sirrus (Hybrid)



And rode to work

Here's the figures

Journey to work this morning





Journey back from work this afternoon





Was pretty happy with how I did considering I've never ridden on the road before and am not very fit


Here is the bikes Tom and I have ordered

Mine is a Felt F85 2011

And Tom's is a GT GTR Series 3 2011

You set off to work at 1/4 to 6 in the morning ????

Crazy!!! - Good on you for doing the cycling though

You will get stronger and fitter if you can keep it up

Very nice ben, i do alot of cycling myself. Not for commuting funnily enough, just leisure. I have a kona dew plus

Good on you for riding, i used to do 10 miles a day each way to work. Keeps you fit.7

I remember getting up to do a paperround on my bike, then riding to school, coming home and going back out on my bike again!

I used to do trials riding, would love to get back into it, but cars seem to have taken over
