My Cycling Blog (Bike, kit & accessory reviews)

[Kingy]

On the behest of my local bike shop (High Peak Cycles) I did a review on the Mio Bike GPS unit a few weeks ago and posted it on here. It was well received and the bike shop asked me if I'd do some more reviews. I said yes and decided the best way was to do a blog. 

And so http://www.theangrybiker.co.uk was born. 

Initially I was reviewing things I'd demo'd and bought or items I 'had' to replace. So the reviews were pretty much positive due to the fact they were bikes and kit I'd kept. That altered with the latest test item (a bike cleaner) which was shit, so I explained that (and why) after using it. 

Anyhow - One of my reviews which I posted on twitter has been used by an online magazine. It's nothing special, but the bike shop are very happy about it (as it gets their name 'out there' for nothing) and I'm pleased too as the site only went live last week once I'd got a few reviews added to it. 

They online mag used my 'Mondraker Dune RR' review ...




The bike shop are now talking about pushing their reps to get samples for me to test and review.   Fingers crossed this comes off as it will be good for them and could be very nice for me too.
