Hi.
I would like to spend only £300 - £500 on the bike, nothing too special.
As for the rest of the equipment I'll have to add that to my wish list.
The bike club I am sure always bikes past my house on Sunday in Linton high street, around 25 bikes.
This is actually what made me find the forum. As I am wanting to get fit, besides what else is there to do on a Sunday.
Also will be great to meet many of you.
None of my friends bike. They all too lazy.
I assume you mean a road bike ?
At that price point you cant wrong with a trip up to ikea to visit decathlon owuld be a very good bet

Lloyds cycles in swad is a very good shop but i am not sure if they would have anything at this price range , worth popping in maybe .
Decathlon also do some cheap , good kit clothes and shoes/ helmets etc although for shorts lately i have moved onto wiggles dhb active shorts as they are cheap and comfy as i found the aerons this year seem to be tighter cut and have a smaller width pad and the active have the same pad as last years aerons.
I am not sure about the club tbh , mercia have 3 rides that take different routes most weeks , you also have burton ctc
If you want to discuss it further you could pm me and i will gladly offer any advice/help i can or even a ride although the next 2 weekends i will not be club running as its mini cks birthday party and the week after i have gtg pick relative up from airport so Sundays will be a spin around my quick loop around Rosilston, coton, catton, barton , drakelow and back home.
