How many bikes does one man need? Articles / La Marmotte - 174km cycle, 5180m ascent Date: Apr 17, 2009 - 10:43 AM Yesterday, after work, I picked up the 2nd new bike. Another beauty, carbon-fibre this time. It may sound extravagant having two bikes, but I actually got this frame free in a special crazy one-day-only deal Planet X where doing. And you all know how I love a bargain. A free carbon frame, it doesnt get much better than that really. So much so that a lot of people thought it was an April fool when Planet X advertised it. Of course it was pouring with rain on my ride home, and coming straight from work, riding in jeans with no mud guards was fun. Today I am resting the legs, as tomorrow Kieran, Chris and Khanh, experienced roadies from work, have invited me on the Legs of Steel 82km, 1500m ascending route around Box and Leith Hill. See here for details. Ie they are going to turn my legs to mush. Lets hope the weather clears up.
