Wednesday's delivery |
The delivery consisted of one large box containing my new mountain bike..... quite a speedy delivery, as I only ordered the bike on Monday....
The contents of the box..... |
Inside the box the bike was very well protected with sealed foam wrapping and cable ties.....
Within twenty five minutes I had the bike fully assembled and all set up.......
All prepared and ready to go... |
Every time I get another bike I always say 'that will be the last bike that I will buy'......I mean, lets face it, at almost sixty six years of age how much time do I have to ride four bikes...?
So I will say it again... That will be the last bike that I will buy..!!
'Head to the woods' on the seat tube... |
So that is exactly what I did.....!!

Trevor, there is a gentleman near me in Shropshire who is 91 yrs and he has got three or four bikes, and he goes out two to three times a week still, I think he's brilliant
'John Horner'
That's great to know John....on that basis there is obviously lots of time for me to add to my bike stable.
._.
Wonderful color!
'Marsha'
I must admit that I was a bit unsure of the colour when I ordered the bike Marsha, but now it's arrived I must say that I actually like it. ._.
Looks like a fuuuun bike & I completely agree with the statement. That is the place to ride! Enjoy it :-)
'Georgie Ormrod'
Thanks Georgie I certainly intend to....
Certainly is a good looking bike.
The right number of bikes to own is n+1!
'Michael Wagner'
Thanks Michael...I'm looking forward to getting some good miles under the wheels...
'Jim'
Which is of course a forever unachievable number Jim.. ._.
Trevor, I love the color. Orange and purple are two colors of bikes that I plan to own...someday.
Is this your only bike with disc brakes?
'anniebikes'
It is a bright colour Annie...a bit of an autumn colour really.
'Steve A'
It is Steve....as I intend getting this bike muddy I thought that discs might be a good idea.
So when are you getting the baggy shorts and a helmet with a visor?
'limom'
Believe it or not I actually have those....they were left over from my Lands End to John o'Groats ride which I did on a 26" wheeled bike...
Mind you I look a bit of a Dork in them....worse than I do in roadie lycra if that's possible :-)
Great post, talking of which I got myself a new bike last week. I consider one person and two moments of inspiration to be the key but I'd like to think you are the constant subliminal fourth inspiration as I have followed your page during this period.
I'll talk about it all on my blog at an appropriate moment with a couple of bike hire posts up my sleeve.
Great to hear that you have got yourself a new bike J.... I look forward to reading all about it...
Nice bike.
I have an orange Genesis.
"Toby Field"
I've seen your Genesis Day One on you blog Toby...very nice it looks too..
Trevor, have you got that bike dirty yet ?
"John Horner"
Ha...Ha... Yes John I have got it dirty, but not exactly muddy yet....hoping to do that over Christmas and New year...
