Hi All,
After a few years out of mountain biking and slowly adding to my stomach and finding the gym so depressing. I bought myself a nice cube hardtail and going to aim to do a couple of events by the end of the season.
Anyway here is my new bike a Cube Reaction SL

really impressed with it so far. very firm but real responsive and loving the Sram components. (always had shimano before)
it's a bike. where do you ride?
Enjoy - mountain biking has turned my life around in the past, and I am planning to get it to do so again this year. It's ace 🙂
fantastic. it's all good. my advise is to ride it a lot, all the time, everywhere, and don't take too much notice of anyone else....
at the moment just getting my endurance up on the canal paths next to where I live. then i'll be going to the forest of dean and cotswoulds
Oooh, lovely bike, just swap the cat for a nice trail dog ad you'll be sorted.
I live in a flat so dogs out and anyway he keeps trying to clean it for me which could be useful
you are doing a rubbish impression of charlie brooker so far! get out and ride it, it's a nice bike, I'll swap ya if you want.
what are some good trails around gloucester area is. I assume there is more than the FOD around but cant find them listed.
hi - what's the cat called?
Hello and Welcome! 😀
Well that bike is just begging to be raced!
If you don't race it it will never fulfil it's bikey destiny.
That's a very small amount of abuse for a fist post from a newb. Must all be having a lie in or something...
🙄
Nice bike b.t.w. Enjoy it. Got my first decent bike last year and the first flush of enthusiasm shows no sign of wearing off. Have fun!

Now that's just not allowed!
Good for you. That's nice bike - looks racy. I'm impressed you can reach the pedals given that you're a cat.
Single or a very tolerant partner? Mrs S wouldn't allow it in the house that dirty!
I would run away now before TSY and Philoconsequences get you to a sexy party and subject you to lolcats!

Lovely bike, great spec for the price.
Make sure you get some ESI racers edge grips in green.
Personally I prefer the bike to be moving at speed when the cat is between the wheels. But I'm not really a cat fan.
Btw the fishing photo in the 1st pic : is that a chub that's been caught?

plan is to get my endurance up and do the The Chilterns 100 in August and then do the Twentyfour12 12 hour solo race year after. with what ever floats my boat in between.

Standards dear boy, standards.

Hope that's not spray on mud?!
Looks great, nice colour scheme 😀
😆

as the mighty S-Club 7 put so eloquently:
There aint no party like an Swingley supersexy party
