Road test

 After the disaster of the last ride where the rear wheel failed, nobody mention weight, I was happy to find this bargain set of Mavic wheels

 which arrived 24 hours after I clicked

 and prompted a spruce up of the steed that is supposed to carry yours truly 480 miles next weekend plus a bit

 have to say they look great

and on the test ride much fun was had by all. Roll on the big one!
