Re: Re:

At the moment I'd get away with a gravel/cx bike and a hardtail I think.

I'm pretty much in the same boat.
A gravel/cx bike that doubles up for road bike duties.
And at the moment a short travel full sus bike (but could equally be a hardtail mtb).

I seem to have a shake up every week at the moment
A 2008 Cannondale Scalpel.

I think the last few months of not riding much with a mysterious calf injury has meant I've been spending more time buying/building/selling etc...

Its a very nice looking bike, really happy with my older Plug otherwise I'd be tempted by these too.

Hi guys
Can I ask a favour of you all, could you go over to the retro road section and vote for the RBotM ?
Just pick which ever one floats your boat and click submit.
I only ask as this month I made it a themed month as Reynolds 531 to try and boost some interest. Now usually nothing is awarded to the winner other than being able to bask in the glory of being the winner, but this month I went to Reynolds themselves and got a prize for the winner along with a personal letter of congratulations for the winner. They have shared it on all their social media etc and it's all good,....except next to no one has voted, even less than usual, which is a bit poor when Reynolds look at it.
So if you can help me out a little with a vote, then it would be much appreciated. There's lots of beautiful machines on their so something for everyone.
It ends tonight at 9.30!

Cheers
Jamie
