Picking my new bike up tomorrow!!!

[tantrumbean]

He's home!!! Brought him home on the train and it was chucking it down on the way from the train station, so I spent half an hour drying and polishing him cause it seemed terribly wrong letting a brand new bike get mucky...

Looking at the weather forecast, my chances of getting out on him for the next few days are minimal...hail, sleet and heavy rain - great!!!

Had ordered some slim shims of the web following a thread on this forum as I was struggling with the lever reach on the testride, and I wasn't sure if they would have them in. Good job I did - lbs had never even heard of them, but were very impressed and are going to order a whole load in on Monday. The difference they make is amazing, so thanks a lot for that tip!!!!

Will have to post some pics tomorrow of what he looks like in real life!!!

Yes, we can't wait to hear and see more!
How thrilling!

It 'always' seems that rotten weather starts the very day one picks up a new bike. It's a plague that follows most of us. I hurt my hip (not biking) after only a few miles on my new bike and couldn't ride it for 6 weeks! It was torture.

Glad you are getting those shims.

Took the picture from the wrong side , but you get the general idea...

Just have to wait for some dry weather now....

Oh my! He is just beautiful! Is he living in the house for awhile? Here's wishing you terrific weather from now on.

Ooooo pretty, you know, for a boy. I'm sure my bike is a boy too but I suspect he'll be wearing some pink soon because thats how I roll.
