My Bike to work bike...

Where I work they signed up to a bike scheme and 8 of us decided to go for it. I went for a Boardman hybrid which I quite like. I picked it up this morning from Halfords in the box and built it up myself at home. Enjoyed setting it up and putting the extras on.

Nice !!
Bloke at work has one and he thinks its good, i use a virtuoso for commuting and the boardman road comp for the weekend.

A friend of mine has one of those. I liked so much I was tempted to buy one, even though I dont need one!

Lovely machine!

I think if I was to utilise a C2W scheme I would love to get the boardman CX for commuting which would double up for winter.

Looks smart!

Smart choice I reckon and looks strangely familiar . I opted for SKS Longboard mudguards though (which I'm very happy with), and fitted Continental Touring Plus tyres which roll well on tarmac for commuting, but are equally sure-footed on the gravel paths and trails when I'm out with the kids and tag-a-long.

That Boardman is great value for money IMHO

I had my first outing to work this morning and I like very much. One of the MD's at our place (top bloke) comes over to our warehouse on a Monday morning for a coffee and wanted to see the bike. He liked what I had got and we had a good chat. I got him into cycling 12yrs ago as he is more into off road and has just bought himself a something well out of my price range bike. I am really pleased with the Boardman and feel I have made the right choice for what was on offer at Halfords and what I was prepared to spend. Plus as well on the quiet I was and still am a Chris Boardman fan so there is a little pride in getting the bike as well.......Cheers for the feedback by the way
