Taking a step up!!!!

Have a Spec Rockhopper but want to up grade, from a weekend warrior to a weekday warrior , with more use of bike.
Rockhopper taking it's toll now i.e. back forks are cracked now ,am th;Dinking its not sturdy enough for this .
My question is ...whats my next best step up, now to get me in to racing mode and beyond ? ;D

Take a trip up to Eurocycles on the Long Mile road Ferg and ask for Richie, he will sort you out with the right bike for the right money.

I have a few fine " managers specials " at the moment !!
