Aug 4, 2013Specialised Secteur Triple
$400 GBP58cm. Very good condition, a few marks which I've tried my best to capture in the photographs. Gave a service before I took the pictures. Bearings are smooth, no play I could notice anywhere and all silky smooth still.
Looking for £400 ono, you can pickup from Bath or I can post at your cost.

I'm not posting this to get into any arguments, but I want to make one simple point.
"i couldn't care less if u picked up a shovel once n moved a bit of dirt!!!!! i don't believe for a second u have! sorry dude ur just too young. "
Sorry, I've witnessed not only Tim, but many members of the clubs pick up many shovels and move many pieces of dirt, resulting in many trails being in much better condition than they previously were and new trails being built.
"if your are building out of the designated area this needs to stop NOW!!!"
Club members all know where they're allowed to build, and where they're not. We all understand respect the rules. We all obey the rules.
Thats all I'll post here, if you're not happy with the truth, then I'll leave you to claim we're "too young" to pickup a shovel.

Can you link me to that route Rich? Might use it to add some miles into the commute when I don't want to do too much. Also, traffic lights piss me off :P

Well said, probably one of the best groups of people you could meet make up the club as it currently stands as well. This can only get better next year!
