Hey guys. I'm from Blackpool but living in Manchester for uni at the minute. Always had
a massive interest in cycling but got put off as the last 2 bikes I put time and money
into ended up getting stolen. Since I've been in Manchester I couldn't help but notice all
the stunning road+track bikes I'd see flying past on Oxford road and from abit of browsing discovered fg. Back at home I've never really seen or experienced it apart from in the
artwork of Mike Giant (check out http://www.rebel8.com for their blog and clothing if you've not
heard of them). I'm dying to get myself hooked up with a bike and just get out exploring
around Manchester, getting a feel for fg and getting myself fit again! Only thing is
I'm currently broke and it's impossible to find a job round here! Think I might have to sacrifice going out for a month or two and chip into the next loan instalment for a bike.
Enjoying having a flick through the threads, learning more and seing some amazing (+some not so amazing) bikes.
Wish me luck
Thanks for reading
