Hi all!
I'm Alexandicity. I just moved to Portsmouth a little while ago and found this city is quite cycle-friendly (largely by merit of its compact size and flat landscape!). I've been cycling forever but am looking to get into it a little more "seriously" - hence my interest in registering here and learning from the experts!
I've currently got an old but solid road bike that is frankly falling apart. The plan is to replace parts, bit at a time, until it's a much more impressive road bike! I use it for daily commuting so I'm happy to drop some cash to make it good. The frame, wheels and saddle are OK; priorities for an upgrade are the handlebars (want to replace the current straight-bar with drop-bars or similar); the gears (the current ones are very stiff and flimsy) and my cycling clothing (need something that'll keep me warm and dry into the winter....
Hope to talk to you all much more soon!
