I don't know if my changes to the Fondriest are substantial enough to justify a full thread. It's mostly about tidying it up with coordinated white bar-tape and saddle, new tyres and brake hoods. I'm also changing the bars and stem to rein in and narrow the cockpit. Group-set, wheels and frame remain as they are. The bike is in excellent condition as is, so I'm not adding much to its visual impact. I'll take a few photos and see how I feel.
I don't commute every day, but when I do it's from Twickenham to Oval by way of Putney, Wandsorth and Clapham Common. Detours on the return leg may take in Tooting, Wimbledon and Kingston, but that's more of a summer thing. I don't generally enjoy the ride home as much as the ride in - too hectic.
Well I do ride occasionally to Twickenham (I lived there before moving to Brentford a year or so ago) to the farmers market, but usually with the Holdsworth.
