Ah wait til you see it man. Electric front windows, 1.4 litre tax, steering wheel adjustable for tilt AND reach. 60:40 split rear seats.

I'm envious of the tax alright!! Oh, don't forget Armstrong interview at 2am on Discovery!

So the question needs to be asked, how much were you guys paying for one?

If they tell you, they will have to drop you. Like green-lidded R5 Ninja Turtles...

Beautiful c-record groupset. Not sure about the wheels or frame though!

Like a lot of the teams, they are still running old 7900 10 speed dura-ace. Apparently supply of the new 9000 is limited.

No you don't. Attach the file. Then open it in a new tab. Copy the URL. Go back to your post. Click in the box where you want it to appear. click the thing that looks like a picture / stamp above the box and paste the URL there.

I know this isn't the forum for this but this won't work for me

Create a free account on Photobucket. Upload the photo there from your computer. Once uploaded under each photo there are a number of links. Copy the link that looks like [img][/img]www.photobuket.com... etc etc into your post and it'll appear in the thread. The [img][/img] bits are the key.

They should go down to cyclesuperstore.

Mark Renshaw's Team Blanco Giant Propel. Don't like the Blanco livery much, but the Propel frame is gorgeous IMO.

Kona Grand Wagon. New commuter / engagement present. Picked it up in the CRC Christmas sale, it was 50% off so I couldn't resist. My last commuter, a hybrid, lasted 5 years, so I was happy to strike at the price.

It's great, geared quite low which is perfect for city centre traffic, even if I would like it slightly higher on the open (Howth) road. Need a set of 'guards and to peel off the reflectors and it's the perfect commuter.

@christeb: massive amount of seatpost given the horizontal top tube, and a flipped stem.

Is that frame not too small for you?

Congratulations anyway. :-)

And maybe do something about the yellow pedals ?

Yeah, the colour didn't quite match the description on the CRC site. It looks a little like a dangerous reptile though, dark green with a little luminosity as a warning reminder!

Thanks! It's 60cm and I'm 191cm. Fit seems and feels fine.

Wow.........the glamourous life of a world champion, eh?

There cannot be many sports where the WC endures at such a filthy, physical level - are those her socks that she is using to 'wash'...?
One tough girl - I think she has passed the HTFU test.
