I like the bike, but as a matter of interest - where do you go mountain biking in the Coventry area?

As an ex-Coventry kid, I can't think of too many exciting offroad spots nearby. I have childhood memories of Kenilworth Common being interesting, but that's about it!

Hi Colin,
we use the cycle paths, tacks, ploughed fields round coombe abbey.
or using the cycle tracks around kenilworth that I wouldnt want to take the madone on ,Its more x country than mountain
Its pretty light now, so nice and easy to ride.

I always fancied going over to Cannock Chase but never got round to it.

The new forks don't really go with the bike.... <runs away to hide>

 

[Philk]

Garz, I agree, I have ordered some fork decals in yellow, as the red looks a little out of place,
They do work really well though

 

[Garz]

Yeah the old ones are obviously inferior however the decals on it made the bike look $hit hot! (i'm not normally one for buying a bike dependant on how it looks).
