New Bicycle Ordered




Lunchtime today I went and placed my new bicycle order at Cycle King in Stony Stratford... I’m buying it through Cyclescheme; my work claim the VAT back and I get to pay for it in 12 equal ‘gross salary’ payments – cool!

I already have a mountain bike that I bought 13 years ago, so I’ve chosen a simple 3-speed to commute to work with.

The Cyclescheme rules are the bike + accessories must cost £250-£1000 and this bike was only £125, so I’ve made up the difference in accessories... helmet, gloves, puncture resistant tyre upgrade, pump, lock, panniers, lights and trip computer.

I expect to collect the bike in 2 weeks or so, until then I’m off to work on my feet or the ol’ mountain bike... Q
