I just bought a new bike. Would you believe me if I said I bought a tandem?

Also, I put a deposit down for a 2007 Merida Mission 2000-D, 22inch.

The tandem is going to be an absolute turd to ride. It’s main feature is it’s a piece of CRAP. But, the idea is that it’s meant to be a bit of fun. Hopefully it might be enough fun to get some other people into cycling as well. If I encourage one person to ride a bike and get a little bit fit then it’s more than worth the money I’m wasting on this turd!
On a “lighter” note (excuse the pun), the XC mountain bike is going to be absolutely brilliant. It features nothing but pretty much the best everything, without being more expensive than what elites ride. In fact, I think this model might be what the elites ride! My idea is to get into endurance cross-country mountain biking. This will both get me back into some fun mountain biking but also be great for my marathon running. And my marathon running will be great for this type of riding! It’s going to be the only one of these bikes in Australia in this size. Two are coming out in this size, and one is already pre-sold in NZ.

I haven’t actually got either of them yet. The mountain bike should come in early Feb, and the tandem a bit sooner. Stay tuned!
