No Limits

I went out on Liz's new Brompton for her (one size fits all) to put a few more miles on it before its first "running in" service at AVC.

Increasingly amazed how these little machines gobble up the miles - don't let those little wheels fool you.

Becoming more convinced by the day that these are the only bikes we really need.

I'm completely new to cycling so all this information is very helpful to me. Please pop by my cycle blog and follow me too. I add new stuff all the time and I'll be adding Shetland scenery very soon. Just had my gallbladder out on Friday so waiting to get back on my wheels and would love your encouragement!
Many thanks.

Hi Kate, I'm now following your cycling blog, as requested. Looks like you're enjoying your return to cycling. And hope you recover from your op soon.

Hi WestfieldWanderer, thanks ever so much for following my blog. I've just put a new post on there tonight. Hoping our weather will improve as my health improves so I can actually get out there when I'm back to normal health! I'll just keep reading blogs til then!

Funky colour scheme :>)

Must admit, after borrowing one recently for a weekend I was smitten!

Glad you like the colour scheme, Ian. We couldn't make our minds up, so we got one of each. :-)

I once rode something like a Brompton when I was a kid (friends had one). I'd need to ride one again to be convinced they're "mile eaters," but regardless of that they are very nifty.

Indeed, Ben. Don't take our word for it. Get out there and find out!

Here's a couple who seem to like the idea:
