I've not heard anything from the bike shop today which means the test-bike wont be in until mid-morning Friday at the earliest I suspect. The bike shop is shut tomorrow so I don't think I'll get a phone call then.
So I'm gonna have to pull out of this as I have to pick the test bike up Friday because I wont have any chance over the weekend. Gutted, would've loved to have seen you guys. Obviously, if by a miracle, I can pick the 5 up tomorrow I may still join you all
