Joy of joys

Thanks to the good men and women down at Fitzroy Cycles, I’m well on my way to being the proud owner of this (I put a deposit down):

Specs here.

It’s by far the most I’ve ever spent on a bike and I’ll have proper clip-in shoes and all. Not to mention a very smart bib to make me look like a wrestler.

It also means I’ll single speed my current bike to make it the cadence building commuter I’ve been after for so long.

It’s just all too much excitement. Who wants to go for a ride.
