Review: Fara F/All Road Bike
This review can be summed up in three words – Buy This Bike. The following may just be a ‘Dear John’…
Andy got into cycling, and writing about it, late in life and as a result has a wealth of pop culture references to tangentially weave into word soups, along with a host of dad jokes and non-sequiturs. Firing this seemingly endless lava stream of semi-consciousness is a passion for all things cycling that is far in excess of his ability to actually do it.
After many years of dicking about amateurishly building his own bikes, he now builds professionally for amateurs.
He used to do a running, but having completed a couple of half marathons he's decided he likes the way his knees bend and a casual jog is all they'll tolerate now.
Famously failed to do the Etape even before the big climbs started, Andy nonetheless still takes on ludicrous challenges on two wheels and then instantly regrets them. Would like to build (and presumably, break) his own bamboo bike one day.
Once described by his editor as the 'Marina Hyde of cycling clobber reviews', but this may've been the result of a concussion.
