Hi

My aim of 2014 is to get out on the mountain bike more in the Herts/Essex area. I have been to Danbury and Epping Forest but would like to join in with some local rides if they exist too.

I am originally a mtber (since circa late 90's) but switched to road for fitness (2010 ish) and due to my old marin being shot but since having bought a new bike in Autumn I am keen to ride it as much as possible this year with half an eye on the coast to coast soon.

I am also on bikeradar.com under the same name

See you later

Mal

Just a few bikes there, I struggle to get more than 3 in my shed.

How do you find the on one carbon forks? I am waiting for them to come back in stock. Otherwise was going to get the exotic carbon forks.

Very nice, and the site looks good generally. I am fitting to a 1,1/8th standard headset so these forks are no good but a useful site. Was postage/tax much?
