    Nice one Dave. Is this the Cafe Latte model?

    Model name is the subject of debate; Cafe Latte, Skim latte, Skinny Soy Decaf, who knows? Suggestions?

    The Mudgatori!

    Took it for its first outing this morning - it's beautiful! So good that I think he's worried I'm going to start beating him up the hills - hence the addition of the 290g tyres. Beats being pushed off again I guess...

    Excellent work Anita. Dave is always concerned about protection so prefers thick & sterdy rubbers even if you lose a little bit of the feel and sensation they are less likey to fail when needed most.

    Very nice Dr Dave, I have bike envy, liking those wheels in particular. Congratulations Anita, that's such a nice bike it might lead one to speculate you took a dive in order to get the upgrade. Surely its got to be called the ristretto? Short, dark and perfectly formed.
