June is upon us and that means that the Smithfield Nocturne will soon be upon us too - it's the one night of the year that we all gather to marvel at the spectacle whilst wondering why it is always so bloody cold despite it being close to what 'they' call mid Summer.
Of course, yours truly does have a vested interest in proceedings thanks to links with arguably this country's greatest all round cyclist - Keith Henderson (aka Cadence Man / The Hendernator). Who else can hold down a full time job and a family whilst still managing to ride a 6.08 time in the Dragon Ride (check the stats - that is good), be runner up in the national Rolapolluza finals and be twice winner of the Smithfield Nocturne folding bike race - THE MAN IS A MACHINE!
In recognition of his growing palmares the kind people at Dahon (and I say this without a drop of seething envy, I really do) have loaned him their latest pride and joy - the MU-EX. What a piece of kit - superlight, superfast (Sram RED!!) and superstyling make this possibly the ultimate in folding bike porn for those who can afford the £2099 price tag.
Will the man become one with the machine? Find out on the 19th June
