    Desmo, my 2 favourite bikes (well, if the dale was a supersix). A CAAD10 was one of my choices when buying the BMC...if only I knew then what I know now...

    If I was in the market for a new bike I'd be pretty torn between a supersix and a tcr advanced though, hubba hubba!

    It probably squirms like a wet noodle when you try pedal though...

    I just tell myself that if Myles McCorry and Martyn Irvine can do it on the same bike as me, the bike isn't the bottleneck and my bank account doesn't take a hammering:

    Light bikes have an intrinsic beauty that transcends base considerations of performance.

    I have AstraMonti disease too, but it's in remission.

    My first cycle since late 2012 on what I consider a thing of beauty, my Carerra Virtuoso. Beautiful day for it.

    sorry about that, shrunk it down by dragging in the bottom right hand corner to an acceptable size but that didn't carry through to the post.

    I've cannabilised the Cayo - the crankset and wheels are not what came with the bike

    I keep the really fancy stuff for the racer - bear in mind my commutes are also my training spins.
