I am a bike tart these days...absolutely.  ;D  ;D

I try not to slag off anyone else's bikes, even if they are tesco special bikes, because inevitably they are ridden by spotty teens that can wheelie for 10 more meters that i can....which would be 11m.

I'm only an average rider, so I'm well aware that all the bling in the world won't really help me ride faster or better.

Debatable!  ;D

I once took part in an XC race here, and finished almost dead last. However, I was told at the end that I was the fastest. Unfortunately that was only on the downhill section where people were watching!

So you can also be fast and look good, but be completely crap  ;)
