    Ah here it doesn't need it's own thread :)
    I actually went looking for the bike thread last night but didn't find it.
    You haven't been on twitter enough lately so!

    Yep went mad, will find that thread later and post up pics.
    It's on my twit feed anyway also with a mini review.

    - oh, and try givin up the booze, engagement and all your weddings and you'd be there too no doubt!

    I should have just posted it in the science debate for the entertainment :D

    I'm too busy drinking for twitter these days.

    Just got confirmation of a replacement frame on my bike, so after Athlone I'll be rolling on the Exocet 2.

    Now, to go searching through twitter.

    Thanks and don't worry, they had my full permission.
    It's insured, will have 2 GPS trackers on by the weekend, alarmed at home at all times and locked away v securely when not in use!

    Now it's up to me and my legs to try keep it honest! ;)

    Out of curiosity, why are you upgrading the road bike? I would have thought, given your goals, that you would be on the P2 over 90% of the time. I'd have thought a P2 frame and gears for the turbo would be a better investment????

    Its nice to have new things to play with also the road bike is already looking weary after heavy use:) I train on the road bike Sept to Feb over the winter months and keep the P2 fresh and clean for prep and race season Feb until August. You still get the same training benefit as long as your cycling. Probably will replace out the profile design bars on the P2 though as i am not a fan of them. If i even suggested i was upgrading the P2 i would be shot:)
