OK lads, so the rain stopped. Rode the new bike today, fark me it's good. Corners like a demon, so stable (eben in the 60kmph??? winds that are blowing here today). Did around a 100 kays on it. Straight away I was confident with it. Had my last alu frame for around 5 years, that took about 6 months to really trust.

I'm excited. Now to get back some of the fitness I lost over the last 6-7 weeks. Lucky I have been riding the steel Pinny, weight training.

Panadnie Forte, scary stuff indeed.
