Finally I made it to the bike shop and did a testdrive for my new bike. My old one is about 20 years old and in a very bad shape, so I really, really need a new one.

My old one was a simpler one (and it was a price I won. I am a blood donator and they are also have a kind of raffle for their donators. So it costed my half a litre of blood) and served me long, I deceiced I will go for a more expensive one. I never owned a car - so I saved lots and lots of money (no tax, no insurance, no petrol - let alone the purchase price) - and can spent easily some money on a bicycle!

And this will be the one: Contoura Porto metallic-green (bike) 8-Gang SHIMANO „Alfine“ Freilauf (gear change)

Contoura is a German bicyle company.

I ordered the bike today and will get it in 2-3 weeks.
