because my Giant VT got nicked, the insurance offered me £2.5k if I used their supplier who said tey could do a 575 for that, then my LBS did me a 575 build for £2K...god knows how they managed it but I took their arm off!

Because I fancied having a bash at road riding.

Because it was the best looking road bike I'd ever seen (Orbea Orca), and I used it as an incentive to sell my second car (though bought the bike before the car was sold).

Because I wanted a change, had read lots of glowing reviews on this here forum and figured going back to a hardtail would be fun, it would also be quite rare in canada and as I was swapping my full suss 06 Enduro for a hardtail I figured I would sell the hardtail commuter I had too. Back to just one bike! Very pleased with my alpine in every respect except maybe the commuting part, but it still does the job
And with an office move it will actually get a thorough workout on my commute next year Not enough pics in this thread.

Why do you wanna ride that bike around
cos I want to
cos I want toactually my newest bike is a clerical error; an accidental order. A salsa dos niner 29er soft tail. I am now quite excited about building it as a alfine hub'd xc bike. I have barely shifted for 9 years so it will be a change. Also a short travel 29er should feel like a rollercoaster of momentum and giggles
