My new hardcore race machine...

[Gooby]

Orange 5 SE with added buh-ling!

[Janitor]

Nice... prefer the new model out at the start of April

[hueandcry71]

Laminate floor at the top of stairs = accident waiting to happen.

• Dont worry there is no charge for this risk assessment.

OOOh look at those flash hydraulic disk brakes. Are you doing the red bull 24 hour thing?

Or how about this

Nice, always fancied an Orange, good choice.

[Loudman]

Are those tyres tubeless?

[SpeedYellow]

It's one of those IQ tests really isn't it..... is it orange or is it blue....

All you need to do now is bolt and engine to it!!!

[Tinkerbell]

Schweeeet!!

[MiniDiva]

Very nice Gooby, all it needs now is some mud!! Some very nice components on there...looks like a big bill might have come with it!

Are you planning to do any events on it? OrangeD & I are doing Mountain Mayhem 24Hr race in June! Mental, but can't wait!!

[mylesmcd]

[R.P.M]

I often keep my bikes in the house when new or doing some maintenance, but upstairs

Very nice Gooby, that's one serious piece of hardware, I considered a Five but ended up with this beautiful YETI ASRsl instead

Very nice- I got rid of my Yeti ASX to get the Orange. Yeti are great bikes but the ASX is more at home with those wierd welsh and thier nutty mountains...

Yep plan to be spending a lot more time in the purbecks. I have not been on a bike for a few months so I have to get over my serious case of saddle sore.

Yep, subtle, isnt it?

Not planning any events as yet, just trying to loose some chubb and have some fun. There is talk of a sponsored ride but at the mo it is just talk. If I do it, I may need to borrow a bee suit

I couldnt bare to let her sleep in the garage so she has been cleaned after getting muddy and I am going to set up the lights and lube her chain.

By the way I am not totally wierd, due to a large slope, my house is "upstairs".

That was me, my "rider tag" is "Kyle Straight", anyway I prefer a little "farmer Jack".

Laminate? That is sodding Oak!

[sramdeen]

hah hah, lol. Don't diss another man's wood.
nice bike. Thompson stuff is the nuts. Once you've experience one of their pieces of engineering, it's like an obsession!

/must get out on my bike more I'm becoming a fat git and that's not good my the Elise's weight distribution.

My 'liz is getting a right hand weight bias. Big reason for the bike!

Frame looks a bit low, is that a girl's bike?
