Don’t Tell My Wife – I Love My New Fuji Roubaix RC 2009

My lovely Fuji Roubaix

My lovely Fuji Roubaix

I know this is a business blog, and this is purely personal – but I completely fell in love all over again last weekend. On Saturday I went in to those delightful fellows at Evans Cycles, and picked up my gleaming new Fuji Roubaix RC 2009.

The Fuji is everything I expected it to be and more. Yes, I’ve already fallen off through not being proficient on the clip-less pedals – but that just made me respect it more.

After riding out on the road for six months on a Giant Escape hybrid bike, for commuting and pure fun, I badly needed to up my game  and invest in a proper road bike. If you’re a cyclist you’ll probably understand the huge difference when switching mounts to a very light, beautifully engineered racing bike from a fairly hefty hybrid mountain bike.

If you’re not a cyclist… then you should start – the health benefits are truly amazing!

So who do I love most – my wife or my Fuji? My wife of course… She said I could buy it! :)

Anyway… back to work…

P.S. The ultimate thanks, for my now obsessional interest in cycling, goes to Mark Johnson (from my Toyota days). I’ve finally seen the light boss!
