All things Colnago

[Wayne pudding Mol]

that kit is so dodgy, I love it.  I have one, paid very reasonable money from a hubber unused and it so comfortable I seldom use it in case I ruin it.  I must say I've never been brave enough to use the bib and shirt together though I had planned to at Eroica but skipped what would have been my first

Yes, maybe some cigarette smugglers out there are looking to launder some of their hot cash?

UAE (not the team, the country) have probably some of, if not the best Carbon fibre available to them. They have been wanting to "build" a bike for some time now and its no secret Colnago have not made any changes to their TT bike interms of aerodynamics etc for a long time. The VR3 is a incredible good frame but other models need a service.

I have a little bike workshop opposite wall to my bikes with a little chair - sometimes I just sit in that little chair and stare at my Colnagos.  Blind adulation for an inanimate object

I'm so glad I'm not alone. My wife looked at me a little funny when I moved the cars out of the garage and took down two camp chairs so I could relax and have a beer with my bikes.

I have a strong suspicion that the Factor is going to be replaced by one of these.

And not a moment too soon neither.

Apparently I cannot get a white one... (not that I wanted it, but I enjoy how I get told what colour bike I am allowed to spend my own money on).

I told my wife she could have my balls, but then I want to pick my own bikes! It works for us!
