Introducing my new bike

Yes! Pictures of my new bicycle, and not before time. Actually, I only have my bike here because I don't have a cat to give a webpage to...

Update (1999): I was intending to add more info about my bike and cycling in Oxford but so far I have never found the time. So this page is a little old... :-)

My bike wrecked

Alas! I have managed to dispose of another bicycle. This time it was written off in an accident—I was ‘in collision’ with a car door. Luckily for me the bike took most of the damage, but in the process the front forks and frame were wrecked. Just about the only component unaffected is the rear wheel. Since this has the hub gears, it is probably the most expensive part of the bike...

I sha’n’t bother changing my bike page to translate the present tense into the past, because (I hope) soon it will be true again. I intend to replace my bike with one just like it.

Update: Yes, I have replaced my bike. It works very nice too.
