My man has a new bike
To disable ads, please log-in.
A Specialized HardRock Sport Disc (same as mine but in different colours). It's his first new bike since his mum bought him a racer when he started work at 16 (nearly 30 years ago!) It was lovely to see him set off down the road on his bike, in his new shorts + baggies. He's all amazed by the wonders of a chamois
and by how much fun the Spesh is. Our neighbours have offered to watch Small Girl for us so we might even be able to get out together!

Oh this is the start of something even MORE beautiful than when it was just you and little girl! Yay for him! Imagine how much fun you'll have when she rides a tagalong bike and then her own two wheeler.

You know you owe us pictures, right??? Hehehe... It's group rules that you get a new bike and you have to post pics... I think it's in the by-laws or something!
