It has been several months since my last post. The early winter was rainy and without snow, then it was very cold for several weeks, and consequently the final milage for XC skiing is only less than 100 km. But that is not important.
In the beginning of March I got my new bike, Scott Foil 40. I went to the bike shop and it was waiting there in the row with two others. Have a look on the photograph, the middle one is mine...
I purchased also a saddle bag and speedometer but because the cycling season in Tartu begins from April (there are already some enthusiasts on the roads...) there were no Shimano 105 gruppo pedals available. There were upper end pedals far to expansive and some of the Look but I prefer to use the Shimano SPD-SL as I used in my old road bike. (By-the-way, I sold it via a cycling fans Internet site in less than 24 h for 100 EUR, if somebody is interested in, the photographs of the old bike can by found at

Thus, the bottle cages have to purchased and the pedals to be installed and then I will try the new bike (but only, when there is no snow on roads any more). So far, have look on the bike on the roof rack of the car on the purchase day (Hawaii Express is the chain of the sport goods' shops and the dealer of Scott bikes in Estonia).
