That's very nice of you - cheers!Enjoy the new ride @ColinJ cause after what you've been through, you deserve it
I am working out a scenic mixed terrain ride to let the bike show its potential and I will take some photographs of it out there.

Aaargh - insomnia! Less than 4 hours sleep and I am scared to go back to sleep in case the bike arrives and I can't get to the door in time ...
I will track the delivery ... ooh, loaded to van half an hour ago in Preston. Looks like time to adjourn to the sofa downstairs nearer the front door!

Ha ha!
My 60s don't actually begin until January, but I thought I would get a head start ... Now where did I leave those, er, oh, what was I thinking about ...? Slippers - where did I leave those slippers!
Hang on, I forgot to buy the slippers! I will have to stick to wearing my sandals downstairs.
Part 2 of my 'spend the inheritance money before boring household bills siphon it away' scheme is underway - a new HDTV is arriving in a couple of hours time. My old 28" Panasonic CRT-based SDTV is on its last legs. The picture sometimes balloons alarmingly so it is only a matter of time before the set goes 'pop'. This is an ideal opportunity to get a replacement set. I'm looking forward to beaming the pro cycling coverage over from my tablet The new 40" set is barely much bigger at the front, but is about 1/10th of the depth. I need the extra space for bike storage!
Lordy, I am knackered!
I just got a text saying that the TV will be delivered between 12:00 and 13:00 so if the bike arrives soon, I can give it the once-over and take it on its first Yorkshire ride this afternoon.
