This is the bike I got earlier this year. A Cotic Escapade. Reynolds 853 tubing. Bought as a rugged road bike. Very surprise at how well it rides actually....doesn't feel any less efficient or slower than my 'proper' carbon road bike. Lovey thing to ride. Seems like Steel certainly is real!!

Yes, steel is remarkably comfortable (mine are carbon or alu, I love the zing of aluminium).

Had a gravel ride this morning. Doing much more gravel these days. The BMC is a dream. Here it is at the remotest phone box in Wales, also sight of the I am a celebrity advert

Those sort of speeds would scare me.
I think I average 10 or 12mph. Maximum is probably about 30mph

I dread to think but mrs prog99 dropped me off at the top of Bealach nan Ba. I was catching the traffic up.

Obvs going down other side

Screw that, we were doing some rock climbing half way up on the right hand side and I suggested I could get dropped off since we had the bikes.

Crazy ! That’s the climbing
Was doing some track stuff over in Spain and had few spare days so stayed in Falset had a wee wine tour round the vineyards and ended up at Suirana apparently quite famous for climbing did see a few people hanging around

There’s someone there just above tree line

Thread resurrection time because I got a new bike

Decided I needed something to keep up with my mountain biking mad son and thanks to the cycle to work scheme this suddenly seemed affordable when the repayments are spread over 12 months and taken out of my monthly pay packet pre tax

It's a Canyon Neuron CF 8, first carbon fibre bike I've ever owned too. Really pleased with it so far. Mountain bikes have come a long way since the last proper mountain bike I bought in 2000, a Marin Mount Vision with V brakes and maybe 80mm of suspension travel.
