I have had my bike – Ribble CGR 725 – for around 6 weeks (300 miles and counting). This is my first proper road bike and it is not an exaggeration to say it has changed my life.
I have a 40 mile (round trip) country road commute – Northumberland hills – with a decent climb (1000ft).
My bike just rolls through the hills and eats up the miles. It brings me such joy!!
