C40 smile

[byron27]

well, i picked the c40 up on thursday night and waited until saturda
morning to ride it as i didnt want to get it wet on my first ride!
Unfortunately there was a broken water main at the end of my street s
it got wet anyway......BUT it is a dream to ride!
I was always skeptical about spending big money on frames and i stil
have that ethos (due to moths in wallet syndrome i think) but th
handling on this beastie is nigh on amazing!. It corners like a dream
is amazing on downhills, hugs the road at all times. I am convinced
am now a believer in the chruch of colnago

Bad news about the car door dutchie. I copped it a couple of times an
i definitely think choosing the route into the driver bay was the righ
decision. Ive gone the other and been caughtbigtime in the chest and i
messes you and your bike up as well as throwing you into the path o
traffic
