H - I mentioned the tri bike thing not being his area of expertise to Pierre last night over dinner. I wasn't very popular. He bristled and said 'of course I can do tri bikes' and then castigated me for having so little faith in my husband's professionalism. Oops. As for your mtb - you should see the state of some of the bikes we have... what is it? Re the comfy chairs for the timers - excellent idea. and yes, book is wise too. I hear 'War and Peace' is good. That and Lord of the Rings. I would recommend A Suitable Boy, but I fear it may be too short. How about Ulysses? That should keep 'em entertained...

(Also it's been emotionally damaged since I put a pannier rack on it a few years ago!)
