I wasn't expecting that; I thought you were going for the R5ca?
I did see someone buying one when I sent for a fitting the other day. My god, it was thing of beauty. Total build cost for the bike he was getting was somewhere in the region of £12,500!

Thomson Masterpiece, lots of people use Thomson posts on road bikes.
Personally with a carbon frame I prefer a carbon post

Thomson Masterpiece 31.6. There isn't really anything else that offers the looks, weight, reliability and simplicity.

Damnit! Just realised that my default delivery address for Wiggle is my wife's work; I'm not going to get my saddle and post until Monday. Bum.
Anyone know if City Link will let you reject a delivery and then pick it up from the depot?

My wife has just told me she has booked us 2 weeks in Brittany during the last week of June, and the first week of July so that I can watch the Team Presentation and first 7 stages of the TdF! OMG! She is perfect 
I swear if I get to meet Big George I will wee my pants and blubber like a girl!

Call the depot, because you can collect it. You'll need the tracking number obviously.

Excellent!
Contact me (e-mail in trust), and we can swap mobile numbers and meet for lunch if you like? I'll have my wife and son with me, are you going on your own?

I got all excited this morning as I got an email from Ribble saying my order had been dispatched. It wasn't my bicycle it was some new brake pads.
I use Ribble loads. The delivery isn't the fastest, but they are the cheapest by miles. Everything has always turned up though
I ordered a Tacx Spider Team work stand on Monday and it arrived yesterday, so that's good going!
If all goes to plan, I will be staying in the other halfs parents house which is 50km east of the starting line. We've planned on taking our bikes down for a couple of weeks. I will let you know in a few days what our plans are!Excellent!
