In the absence of a car, I'll have to jump on the bike thread...

My first, (illegally) derestricted Cagiva Mito (would top a ton with the front end gently lifting - very scarey

);

My soft-as-sh*te but oh so comfy Thundercat (note Gareth's pre-Lotus-days Saxo in the background

);

The most recent addition, the 748, which I'm still in love with...;

Who needs a car anyway

The latest member of the fleet and the reason why beer and the internet should not mix.

Having sold a gay car had to get a gay bike to replace it . Not for any other reason that may be posted.

Its going to be a steep learning curve .

Selling my car has cost a fortune .

Tell everyone how you got on when you joined me for a cycle last week!
I'll start.....Tenkfeet (8-9 stone on a full carbon mountainbike on semi-slicks) killed me (15 stone on an aluminium roadbike) going up the hills then on the downhill and flat sections what happened????
Then a full carbon roadbike appears in Tenkfeet's fleet, come to your own conclusions!

You should post a picture of the fleet all together! Nice collection right enough!

You are lucky to be here .

When I crashed mine I made the decision to lift off the seat for just that very reason. Glad I did now . What speed did you hit at ?

That is a miracle , I suppose that tank was a crumple zone . D

The human body is amazing . A guy I used to work work with hit a car head on and went through the windscreen. He recalls looking at the family as he went past inside . I forget his injuries other than a mangled hand . Lucky it was an old car with a thin windscreen .
