Hi Everyone !!

Hi all,

After reading many many posts over the last few weeks have finally decided to join up.

Would welcome a bit of advice if possible,

Getting back into cycling after many years away and the goalposts have moved. I'm 6.2" tall and 100 kilo with a 32" inside leg.
Will be doing Trail riding and stepping it up as I go along.
Was looking at this bike.

Any advice at all would be great.

Hi Russell to CC and as for the bike, no you dont want to go full suss for trails just get a nice light hardtail and the ride will be much faster and rewarding.

Time to do some more searching.

Thanks a lot. I thought I was being a bit ambitous.
