if you can get hold of one have a look at the boardman comp as you will not get a spec like it for the money (but that does mean a trip to halfords, aaaaagh!!)

Hi Graham,
How was your ride out on Saturday, I've yet tpo catch up on your posts will get to them later if works allows...
Newbie..
Back issues are availbale to order I'm sure I've seen details in the mag itself.
There are usually a few must get mags IMHO, the dirty doz is one and the WMTB 'bike of the year' (out now!) is another followed by the gear test next month.

actually mate it was a dam good motivator, jay went from tired slow to alive and full of grit. it must have worked cos we got in before them.
