What's the last thing you bought thread

Kevo all you ever talk about is being injured/sick and eating fast food. How much do you weigh really?

That why he always has lower limb injuries. He's really 27 stone and his little legs can't take the load.

It didn't the first time so it's a good job you posted it twice.

How much?

How'd you manage to get it so cheap? Thought those bikes cost upwards to £1k

Since when?

You getting them mixed up with Garmin/Slipstream?

Still cheap for a road bike though. Normally anything other than a Tesco or Halfords bike is more than 300 quid.

Halfords cheapest is £300. Pretty decent bike as well.

Since when?

probably! Every time I see a price of a racer bike they always seem to cost £700 upwards. Always thought they were an expensive bike, I guess not.

Had a little ride around in it earlier, im certainly gonna die riding this bike.

Fast aren't they?

Not so much that, just not been on a racing/road bike since i was around 9 years old, so about 24 years ago. Gonna take a lot of getting used to the handle bars and especially the where the brakes are ffs.

I've been riding mine since 'bout September now and I'm still not sure where to put may hands...

Just rest them on the hoods its weird though having shifters on the flats of the bars which makes it abit more awkward compared to a conventional road bike

That's pretty much what I do, with my fingers wrapped round the top of the brakes (assuming I'm thinking of the right thing when you say hoods). I don't feel like I'm very aero dynamic though.

I think that might be because the bike came with a riser stem that I could probably take off though.

Yeah thats right, its not the most aero position but its the most comfortable. If i want to get down abit more i tend to push up with my palms on the hoods or just rest my arms on the flats but thats not the most secure riding position just gets you down more and allows you to get more power down.

Bet you get injured now...

Kevo you're one to talk about getting injuries.

Not played in 3 weeks through injury. Back strain. And that game was my first since mid November due to holidays, cancelled games, not giving a fuck.

I'm going to go mad and buy myself a new pair of football socks later aswell!

You know I've seriously thought about becoming a physio due to my injury background.

I mean I'm almost already qualified anyway...

You're so going to fucking severe your spinal cord or some shit.
