I thought that, but unfortunately I can't link to my local hard disk  And I found only pictures of the new Hornet in the Net. Don't know for what this bike should be good. No place for bottle holders, it's not a race bike, and the carrier can take 12kg, so it isn't a touring bike, too. The old Hornet is a lot better as touring bike.
BTW, nice bike. Each time I see a Cannondale, I'm wondering how good the recycling of coke cans is 
SCNR. It's an old joke between a colleague (who rides a C'dale) and me.

Merida ?I've never heard of them , are they a local make ? Custom fit jobbie ?
Me ? A Roberts for time trials , a dawes for Audax and a cheap specialised for riding off road through grinding paste .
One of the boys in the club landed up in hospital a few weeks ago , he picked up a branch between his front spokes and shattered his carbon forks. I've never heard of this on steel forks , normally you end up bending or ripping out a few spokes.
You say the glass is half empty, I say that makes it your round.

Yeah, I've heard that one before  . I did some research into family history, and discovered that the name is from a profession: "wheelwright" (someone who made wheels).
I ride a Trek 1220 that I've had for about 3 yrs. It's an 'upright' (the opposite of recumbent, I guess). It's a pretty decent road bike.
60 km/h? That's about 37mph (sorry for the Americanism there). I'm impressed. My best sprint on the flat is probably 28-30 mph; I tend to cruise at 15-16 mph.

Yes, the opposite of a recumebtn is Upright. Or Wedgie, if you want to tease them 
My normal cruising speed is 27 to 30 km/h. I have no conversion table here (currently I'm at work).

I can't believe it. 
No generalization is 100% true.
Not even this one.

I had it on the board but ran out of space. I figured enough Canadians would type Hockey in the 'Other' box that your voice would be heard

Well it seems that computer geeks don´t like to play basket...
Here in Málaga, you can play a lot of sports no problem with the weather ( well if you want to ski you have to go to granada that is 150 Kilometers far from Málaga)...

You can do your excercising any time of the day. For half the year weather is my main reason for not getting out there. It's either to cold in the morning or dark when I get home.
