hi everyone! [IMG]/img/vbsmilies/smilies/biggrin.gif[/IMG]
I received my 5 year all clear for cancer, so on the 4th of July I'm going to be cycling from Casablanca to Lisbon, 730 miles in 7 days! I currently have a Univega hybrid, but my work has just signed up to Bike2Work scheme, so I can get any bike under £1000 from Halfords (I know, but it's the only option we have)
So I've had a few people look at the options for me and the general consensus seems to be that the Tifosi CK1 Cyclocross Road Bike is the best choice
Apparently it's a speedy road bike designed for trails, so will be able to handle the [censored] roads I'll have to be dealing with, plus it's made to have racks and such attached, so can carry the vast amounts of water i'll need in the Moroccan July sun!
Any advice would be wonderful, in regards to the bike and the trip itself, I'll leave a link below for my justgiving and blog in case anyone is interested 🙂
