I currently ride a giant defy 1 disc which i have owned from new since 2016. I have loved the bike - polished it after every ride and am please to say it has never let me down. I am now awaiting delivery of what has been my dream bike for a few years - Giant Propel advanced 1 disc............. Am i worried - of course as ordered without a test ride.......am i excited - very........

I must have ridden through Calpe over 50 times on my various Costa Blanca cycling holidays but I never actually went to that sea front... It looks nice, and so does the bike!

Our group used to ride down from the roundabout with a fountain in the middle of it and continue round past a giant pond and then head for Moraira and Javea.

I used to have five bikes, but currently there are only two in the stable:

2011 Giant TCR composite - I love this bike, no discs, no fancy wide tyres, 23C only!

2017 Ribble CGR - This is the sensible bike with disc brakes, mudguards, 30c tyres, heavy and slooow. I don't know if I enjoy riding this, but I'm stuck with it for the time being..

I've posted this before but here's my 2 Giants a 2014 Defy 2 and a 2017 Propel Advanced 2

That Propel looks tasty.

We have been doing a training camp every February for the last 4 years, It's like a second home.

Thank you! still got it, the bar tape is now a matching green... and is still far more capable than the owner. The Defy got sold to fund a MTB that was needed to go out on trails with my lad

We used to go in March, based along the coast at Albir near Benidorm.

I’ve still got my trusty old S Works Epic, 13 years old now

My updated Mk2 Brompton

And last year I bought an almost unused 2016 BMC ALR01 Team Machine which I’m really enjoying.

So here is my new bike - actual picture in the flesh. Have done roughly 100km and must say its amazing. Without trying any harder i have increased my average pace by 4km per hour - but the seat has to go as its killing me lol

Currently using the Tricross

 

[Oldhippy]

My Rayleigh Royal with its new butterfly bars. Great bike from new loads of practical upgrading and a great general purpose do everything bike.

 

[Gunk]

I’ve had a few changes

The BMC Team Machine has been sold and replaced with this.

And this is a lock down project that once completed I just couldn’t bring myself to sell.

Main bike these days is a Giant Toughroad SLR2:

But on days when I think I might need to go faster (it's all relative) I still dig out the Tricross:

Wouldn't mind something lighter, as these are both pretty weighty, but no more space in the garage!

This week I dragged my Viscount Aerospace out of hibernation for a little tour (from a fixed base on this occasion).e
