  1. well, i picked the c40 up on thursday night and waited until saturday morning to ride it as i didnt want to get it wet on my first ride!. Unfortunately there was a broken water main at the end of my street so it got wet anyway......BUT it is a dream to ride!.
    I was always skeptical about spending big money on frames and i still have that ethos (due to moths in wallet syndrome i think) but the handling on this beastie is nigh on amazing!. It corners like a dream, is amazing on downhills, hugs the road at all times. I am convinced i am now a believer in the chruch of colnago.

    Bad news about the car door dutchie. I copped it a couple of times and i definitely think choosing the route into the driver bay was the right decision. Ive gone the other and been caughtbigtime in the chest and it messes you and your bike up as well as throwing you into the path of traffic.
