Peroni now, I was drinking Stormhoek red wine with dinner followef by a couple of Budweiser whilst out but really I'm hoping to get a decent bottle of malt for Christmas because that's what I'd be drinking now if I had any.

Grangemouth is piss easy, nearly flat with only two very small hills. Can be windy though.
That'll do me

Good time mate well done. Sub 45min next?
Yes that's what I'll be aiming for,Cumbernauld is the only one I've done but I think I'll do another, i've heard Grangemouth is similar to Cumbernauld as it's not too difficult so I think I'll enter that.

I've just polished off a bottle of Glenrothes 12 year old single malt. Lovely stuff. I'd highly recommend.

Beware of BSOs (bike shaped objects).
The Dunlop bikes you mention are likely to weigh about as much as a small country, so I'd steer well clear.
As a rule of thumb, if you're looking for a cheap new bike, avoid anything with rear suspension (probably front suspension too, TBH). This just adds weight and adds no real benefit due to the poor quality of the components. It's all about trying to look the part.
My advice would be to buy second hand if your budget is constrained. A guy I work with picked up a very decent Giant mountain bike through the local classifieds for £70. The tyres alone probably didn't cost much less than that. you can pick up some cracking deals.
My advice would be to buy second hand if you have less than £250 - £300 to spend. For £300, you could pick up a decent bike on last years model (they quite often reduce by up to 40% if you shop around).
Be wary of Gumtree as it is often used by thiefs to sell stolen bikes. Stick a wanted ad in your local rag, and keep an eye out for any bikes for sale. Another idea is to ask around at work/school/college etc. if anyone has a bike they don't use who would be willing to make a few bob on it.
Bikes from Halfords are generally decent enough quality, but you get what you pay for.
Go second hand.
Ok thanks for the advice.

I'm thinking of getting a mountain bike,nothing too serious,just something to get me along the Forth and Clyde canal path and up the back of Cumbernauld towards Slamannan etc.
Just looking for something cheap for now in case its just a phase.
Anybody know what these bikes from Sports Direct are like? or Halfords?
I know you guys who take it serious will laugh at the idea of buying one of these,but are they any good for a novice? or can you recommend elsewhere for a cheap bike?
Sports Direct are selling the full suspension Dunlop[ bikes for £60 reduced from £150.
Thanks to all replys in advance.
