I am SO excited I just HAVE to share this! I've just ordered myself a folding bike! And..it is a Brompton! Yes, yes. I know I have given the earlier impression that I am after a Dahon but failing to track down any local suppliers I opted for a Brompton from my local cycle store. When I phoned them yesterday, they mentioned that they have a black S type in store and suggested that I come and look at it.
Sitting at my desk this morning just didn't do the trick so I got in the car to have a look at this bike. My employer has recently signed up to Cyclescheme so I am dead keen to use the benefit and as I've always wanted a folding bike, this will be the one to go for.
I have to admit, the black Brompton didn't turn me on at all. It looked way to uninteresting so I have taken a deeper plunge and ordered a bespoke Brompton with two colours of blue! Yeah ! Unfortunately now the waiting starts. Firstly getting the voucher sorted out and secondly waiting for the Brompton as the lead time between order and delivery is about 10 - 12 weeks :-(
Anyway, I'm soooo excited :-) ! You can probably tell...
