Trek 5900 Superlight

Advantages: fast, light, high spec for cheap price
Disadvantages: None

...be increased quite significantly to get anything that would last. I spent hours researching, joining forums (I highly recommend Bike Radar) etc in order to find the ideal bike in my budget. Whilst taking my trusty steed of a mountain bike to Pauls Cycles in Dereham I thought that I'd better have a quick look at the small selection of racers in the shop. It was there I saw it?? The Trek 1200 in black and red. I knew the Trek name and knew that they were generally a good, quality brand. That was it though. The price was £799 which was way over my budget, but because it was a 2006 model I could have something knocked off it. The bike was described as 'shop soiled' since it had fallen over and had a tiny scratch on the frame. If the bloke hadn't told me this I would never have noticed it despite looking over the bike thoroughly... Read review

Advantages: Swift plot development; suitable for nearly all ages.
Disadvantages: Terrible plot; unconvincing characters; indifferent acting.

...Among the first of this year?s summer blockbusters has been J J Abram?s new Star Trek movie, which has been widely regarded as having successfully brought this iconic franchise into a new century and to a new generation.

The reviewers on Ciao so far give the film a full 5 stars, and the Internet Movie Database (IMDb) gives it 8.4/10 from over 75,000 ratings. Against this tidal wave of enthusiasm stands me. I don?t even have a sidekick to help me. I must alone... Read review

Disadvantages: Not enough Nero!!!

...Being married to a Star Trek fan isn't easy. In fact it's blooming hard!! I could swear sometimes I know more about it than he does and it's scary! So to find out there was a new Star Trek movie coming out brought a sigh of "not another one" from me and a lot of excitement from himself. And as soon as tickets were available to order from the cinema, I had to get them in advance for the first night of showings as he decided it just would not do to go on the second night. And so the night came and hubby donned his precious star trek t-shirt for the momentous occasion. Thank goodness he didn't want to dress up as a character - I don't think I would have left the house! And so we went to the cinema and waited to be amazed by what was hyped up to be one of the biggest movies of this year. And I have to admit that I was not... Read review
