Hello from Sunny Brum

Hello all,

my name is Michael. Been riding as a hobbie just to get around but always loved the sport from the Armchair !! Decided to buy a Specialised Allez Road bike yesterday.
Planning to go out today to get used to the gears and pedals !! Never rode a bike like this before, quite nervous but very excited.
Hope to meet new friends and looking forward to shedding some weight .
Michael

Welcome to the forum Michael. Congrats on the new bike!

Welcome Michael, enjoy you new bike!

Welcome Michael, I'll be interested to hear how you get on with the Specialized Allez as I'm toying with the idea of rushing out and buying one myself. Enjoy your new bike, and let us all know how you get on.

Welcome to the website

 

[jdtate101]

One of my regular runs goes right past your way. Check out the 'North Road Eastbound TT' and also the westbound TT. Going out east from you out to Coleshill and beyond is a nice place to ride. Welcome.

Hello from the South of the city.
I've got a Specialized Allez too. Bought it three years ago now. Have nothing really to compare it against, but often gets good reviews in magazines.

Hello and welcome.
Keep riding and the weight will slowly slip away.
