RS20, best course in Wales, but even Bynea club members declined to ride it, and the Celtic series hill climb that was good. But we are all slaves to the ski jump, if the turn was just one roundabout that would be nice. New event     riding courses backwards, the 3c would not be so popular, but the best man would probably win.

Yes Ron; I did it last year and 20-30 Bynea members turned up to watch and then arrived at HQ just before me so I had to wait 30 minutes for a brew. GRRR. And now that event is not on this year .Although some of those Bynea riders were riding last week which is good.
Rob; try the tt forum or eBay with a higher starting price; bike stuff seems to go for good money on there.

There is another Dalkia for sale out there no wheels, my size (5'8ish) £750 if anyone else wants one (no its not mine).

Thanks Chris, that's not going to help me much, pointing out a cheaper Dalkia available on the market lol! Mine is much better of course and has carbon wheels and carbon bars. I'd come down to a grand too as been paying too much ebay tax of late. Just sold my Focus on there!

Sorry Rob I did think of that; they are a similar price with wheels and of course yours is in vastly better condition. And faster. And lighter.
Hopefully that has redressed the balance in your favour.

Rob and Chris
If we let you two carry on the price may well drop some more!
So perhaps I shouldn't intervene just yet,however would you be able to bring the tt beast along to club night on June 12th?
I am at least 2 ins shorter than you so size could be an issue
Now what do I tell my wife? n+1 and all that!

Some advice from someone who will remain nameless;
win at least one bike every few years in a competition  ;)

Hi I missed your message until now sorry Andy. Do I know you, think there are several Andy's in the club these days, none of which I recall having dodgy knees? It was more my new found appreciation of ebay fees than Chris that triggered the reconsideration of price. I should be ok to bring it to club on 12th June but will let you know if for any reason I can't.
As for being shorter than me that is a good thing as I feel its slightly small for me (see earlier comment on this thread). I have the saddle up near the limit on the post and have the bars adjusted for their full extension. At 52cm the top tube is several centimetres less than my current road race bike.
