My name is Derek Pierce and I have recently bought a Bongo from ADS Bristol. I live in Corston Bath and work at Bath Spa university. I bought a Bongo because I do cycle racing Time trials and need to get my bike to races as wel as sleep the night before as the races start very early. I look foward to meeting some of you in the future.

Welcome Beatsystem amd hope you get lots of joy out of the Bongo. Don't worry about not getting to Bongo meets if you're weekends aare busy with cycling commitments. The forum alone is well worth keeping in touch with for techie advice and general Q&A chat. If you do get to meting some of the Bongo peeps you'll find them mad and fun. A real cross section of people on here.

Pop your approx. location in your profile as it will help peeps to help you with queries based on locality (recommended garages etc.)

I use the Bongo to get me and the bike to Triathlons.....Have fitted a Fiamma Pro C to the tailgate (having uprated the gas struts,
Great vehicle for this type of use.
