Bet he got it at a discount price, the transfer was stuck on upside down...it's meant to be 666

Personally, as a relatively inexperienced rider, I don't find it that enjoyable to ride with others. Either you are too slow for them or you are tempted to ride at a pace you can't handle. In addition, each rider is likely to have different skill levels, different bikes, their own preferences (fast riding / taking it easy). On top of that, not only do have you to look out for motorists, you are always keeping an eye on the other riders. As bikes tend to speed up and slow down more frequently than cars, it increases the chances of errors! Check out how many You Tube clips show crashes where the rider is in a group situation. That said, I've been on runs with big groups (e.g. Easter Egg Runs)...because the numbers are so large, it tends to slow everyone down and reduces the chances of a mishap. I am sure if you are very experienced and out with a mate with a similar bike and skill level, it is a real buzz

My first bike.....£600....can't complain, wish I had kept it
