    I have two mountain bikes: one I use to pop around the village, and is nice and cheap, in case someone from Cheddar comes over stealing bikes, and the other I use for proper riding, which is more Carlos Fandango. I also have a 2009 Trek 1.9, which I love, as it's nice and light and flies on the levels.

    Why go folding, when you could just put a proper bike on the boot? In summer, I normally take a bike with me on contracts to go for evening rides, and leave it in the room of the hotel I am staying at.

        I still have my Brompton which I used to carry on the train to commute about the City - thus avoiding the tube.
        Still ride it occasionally for exercise. Thing with a Brompton is, of the folding bikes, it's most like a real bike when unfolded i.e. sturdy, very comfy, still has 3 useful gears.
        Plus overall the design hasn't been bettered - it's a thing of beauty.
        NF if you need a replacemnt consider a second hand Brompton - they're so well built they last for years.
        Hard Brexit now!

            Clientco has a changing room and shower. More and more firms in NL do.

              Make sure the client site has a shower facility

                I stick my clothes in one pannier, laptop in the other, and look like I'm setting out on an expedition to the other side of the country.

                  The price oscillates up & down like a yo-yo.

                  And it's got mudguards, so you don't get that streak of wetness up yer back when it's raining.
