Nice photo of a very handsome bike, John, set against that lovely coastline.  (Fair makes me all weepy and sentimental, until I think about the traffic -- but maybe it's not so bad in September?)

Cheers,  John

I’ve moved now but hope to return before too many years are out!
I agree about volume of traffic but as a former driving instructor I’m aware of every short cut available in Bournemouth and Poole, and so could find my way around easily.
Anyhow yes indeed those pictures make a decent bike look even better!
Regards,
John

I think a great bike makes a decent picture look even better. :)

John, what a lovely bike. I do like the red. When I was getting my Audax I couldn’t decide between cobalt blue and red. In the end I plumped for the blue. Now, looking at your photos I’m thinking should I have gone for red? Isn’t the quality of the welding nice?

Glad you’re enjoying it.

Those pictures were taken before I moved house.
I now have a Green Audax with 853 forks.
Thank you for the compliments.
John
