Hi from Cornwall

[Lux1]

Hi there, I haven't been on a bike for a few years now. I used to do quite a bit of mountain biking and I still have my mountain bike. It's a hard tail, without rear suspension.

I currently do not have the funds to buy a road bike, so I've just fitted road tyres to my bike, I know this isn't exactly ideal, but its a start in the right direction hopefully!

Welcome Lux1!
You now have a hybrid ... of sorts
Wish you many happy miles on it: name and picture of your steed, please

Welcome. Whereabouts in Cornwall are you? I spent many childhood holidays in Restronguet and still visit when I can.

Hi &
We are giving serious consideration to moving to Cornwall. Yes it hillier (a lot) but the pace of life suits us better there.

Hi Lux1 and .

Road tyres on the mountain bike will help a lot. Enjoy your rides.

Lux1. You could try your local carboot sales to buy your next bike. I just missed out on a Dawes hybrid a few weeks ago. Guy wanted £45 for it .I left it for a while to try to knock him down and missed out altogether. All the best Mike.
