You will have an absolute ball! I test rode an Amira SWorks SL4 today, totally awesome! Met Bec Werner who won the first women's race on Sunday, she helped me with setup, really nice chicky babe, got a photo with her, it's on FB,Apple wrote:please don't share, I hope to catch up with you on Friday.feral grasshopper wrote:Minimum 26 maximum 39 now, sufferfest for a 130!

Nice bike, FG, I test rode one (top of the range) last year, pity that I can't afford the 10K price tag, sigh!

By the time we pay off the school fees for this, our final year ever, and then save up for a new bike it will be 2013....Mr MM has to finish paying off his Fondreist as well
Doesn't hurt to look and go for a test ride every now and then

Just came home from the TDU
Love it so much, I am happy that I finished, I have to say I found it hard as I have not been on a long ride like this for 8 years. It was worth it

Congratulations Apple! I'm so happy you made it (I knew you would)! Bit worried that Tony Abbott has now followed you to Adelaide - he is keen were you able to lose him in the airport?Apple wrote:So how are we all doing.
