I got a Giant Yukon. 300 notes not bad for front sus and disc brakes.
Would still like to splash out on a full susser though...

The halfords top of the range one at £500 is supposed to be very highly specced and rated!

I've got a Trek 6500 (2000 model) I'd love to buy another but bikes just don't hold their value and it cost me £650 at the time, I've only just worn the the little moulding pimples off the tyres.

Got a Marin East Peak - I very much doubt it is worth the money but I just really wanted it and I'm a contractor - you know how it goes.

Nah, that set of races are only 70 minutes long. I do over 2 hours everyday riding to and from clients, and currently I'm on Gran Canaria going up and down the local volcano for my morning and evening exercise.

It's mountain biking in the woods, but nothing too bad, it is Denmark after all, and most hills are man made. So, I'll be using a rigid 29er.

I have a variety of bikes and they are all for quite specific conditions.
But for £1000 you can't do better than get in touch with Ben Cooper at Kinetics and see if he'll do you a Rohloff hub into a On-One inbred.

Why would you want to mount a bike? I know you're a gooner but this really is sick.
