Hello all, I am Joe and posting from a damp and very wet Glasgow. Hope to test my first bike in years tomorrow at a local shop on Kilmarnock Rd (the owner was an ex Met' cop) clue to the name. Anyway I will let you know how many times I fall off a Ridgeback Meteor ha ha. I think that bike or something of it's type would suit my purpose i.e. for short commute and light off road in Pollok Country Park etc. Also just up the Pollokshaws Rd there is another well established shop selling mainly Claud Butler but they perhaps seem less keen to let you try before you buy. Oh and I intend using the "Cycle to work scheme" to finance. Look forward to further posts and light hearted banter so hope you are not a very serious bunch.
