DB - wedding venue looking more like cost of Felt AR1.... I'm playing the long game, but it might get costly

OK, that takes care of the road bike, now spec up your Tri bike... Cervelo is a good place to start... Or even the Felt DA?

Far too much money for winter so you'll need a winter hack, an MTB and a single speed/fixie as well.

And a turbo.

Does anyone ACTUALLY have this much kit BTW?

Gastank weddings are small change compared to triathlon !! Also a felt ar1 will only go as fast as your legs make it go , as some American fella says "it's not about the bike" !!! #hesayswhilstlookingatascottfoil20

LOL capt, just meant she was spending that much on the wedding, I got no chance of spending that!!! DB said they were as expensive, I agree

I recently bought a F95 (hasn't arrived yet) as my first bike... Then when I get "better" that can be winter bike....

Oh and I have a mountain bike or two... One with 1.25" slicks and one with off road tyres, no turbo, no tri specific bike, no single speed

They include some pretty ropey bikes tbh. Even my race bike is 5 years old now - the whole lot are probably worth less than some people's best bike.

Er, 10 bikes with kids & all, 1 turbo, sod rollers

But no tri bike. Something is horribly wrong!

The IM 70.3 in Lanza looks interesting and guarantees a place in 2013 assuming you finish by the looks of it.... Must go to sleep now!
