Tony, you are on such an exciting journey. Enjoy all the test rides and let us know how you get on. To avoid inappropriate additional recommendations, it might help to know your budget.

Good question, but I don't have a specific number in mind. Given that I'll have to spend about a grand on a helmet and insurance (I've been a closet biker my whole life so have a wardrobe full of jackets ), I suppose I'd like to keep the bike cost to around £6-6.5k ideally,; then again I'd stretch that to anything under £10k for the right bike, or buy used if that made more sense.
