Thank you both! Yes cycling has certainly given me a big outlet for my creativity, both in terms of build choices but then also the little extras. I always need to have some sort of project on the go to keep me sane I'm very grateful it gives me that.
Sadly, not long after the last pictures were taken, I went over a speed bump on the P4 and heard an even louder crack than normal. Returning home and inspecting the frame I noticed the telltale hairline cracks around the seatpost entry on the frame. I loved this bike, I achieved all the times I set out to when I began Time Trialling on it as well as posting my most competitive performances, so I couldn't just get rid of it. The components have been sold but currently the frame hangs on the wall by my desk. One day I'll treat it to a visit to a carbon repair company and possibly a custom paint job, but for now it rests after a life well lived.
