Default An Important Announcement: #1 Road C

On Sunday I was dropping little hints, and Guy asked whether he had
missed an important announcement. He hadn't, _then_.

This morning it arrived. Currently it's in the middle of the sitting
room getting built up, but here's the sneak preview:

1.3Kg of carbon, epoxy and magnesium. Eat your hearts out, girls and
boys.

It's one of those fancy new boomerangs innit? If you end up not liking it,
you can throw it in my direction :-)

Tasty, tasty, tasty. I'm jealous.

If it was me though I'm shove a seatpost in ASAP and clamp that not
the carbon.

killjoy moaner Looks bloody uncomfortable to me! /killjoy moaner

Good old fashioned jealousy aside, will it make an appearance in
Edinburgh, complete with a team of security guards?

And there was me thinking you'd finally succumbed to the lure of the Dark

Very pretty. I am seething with jealousy.

1.3Kg of carbon, epoxy and magnesium.


1.3kg?!?!? I suspect my forks alone weigh that much.

Sith footsoldiers Eddie, Jon and Roos will be working on him in
Edinburgh (I'll be on the Brom for logistical reasons, but since Eddie
has a Streetmachine that shouldn't be a problem...)
