Went for a little ride at the weekend on my 10 year old Enduro. This is a stunning bike, just floats down the trails. I took a few snaps when I stopped for a water break in the shade:

No weaving in and out of traffic or shooting amber lights today:
The trailer + load was about 45kg, and I had to tow it up a hill too. My legs were pretty pumped.

Bought this bike off of a friend's Dad not too long ago. Ride fairly well, though the wheels are not amazing. Considering getting new tyres for it as I can't really afford wheels, I love the colour of the frame, it was built up from nothing in the 90s I think, and the wheels in the photo are the same ones that came with it. Wouldn't mind getting a more modern bike eventually but for the amount of commuting I do at the moment, I don't see point in spending money I don't have.
Cost me £100.

All for the princley sum of £240 not as drool worthy as some of the mounts on display but not bad for her age
