WCR CARBON RR

I figured I would start off this blogging lark with a really simple post.

Seeing as I'm yet to ride my new bike (I'm in a quandary over pedals), I can't (honestly) tell you how great this bike is to ride.

There are a couple of things that I can tell you, the first is just how stunning it is in the flesh! Pictures just do not do this bike justice.

The second is the weight. I admit that the one thing I was sceptical about when checking out the bikes before I joined the team was the "finger quotes", claimed weights.

This is as good a time as any to post a picture of my brand new WCR CARBON RR (medium) on the scales.

Read it and weep boys, 18lbs 10oz!!

That's all I really have to say for now, I'll try to post regular updates on training, new kit & of course, the bike leading up to my first race in the expert category at Llandegla on the 29th March.

From that point on, hopefully plenty of race reports.
