    Thats my thoughts, look at the lens you get for that. This cyclings only a fad, it will pass soon.

    the only thing about a decent bike you will get most of your money back when you sell
    A new lens will not get me fit and healthy

    Cathal, think of the bikes suspension on the roads (not your weight He He) around Inishowen, did you ever hear of power walking with your camera, you might never know what you would come across up in Gleneely.

    Completed my first race today
    stayed up with the pack for the first 8 or 9 miles then dropped back
    But I completed the course

    Only obstacle I had was the Arrow hanging out the side of a van taking pictures
    and I’m sure the fecker will post a few up here some where with me with my Lyra gear on(calm yourselves down ladies)

    Thanks to the folk who sent me sponsorship money it was for a great cause

    €800 is only scratching the surface for a bike. The new one I’m getting is €2700 after having my current bike for only 3 months. Cycling is addictive :D

    It’s all about the pleasure from the pain of the cycle :D Engines are only an inconvenience and weigh the bike down :lol:
