Just finished nailing it all together into one big lump. There will be stuff to do, hoses to trim, gears to set up, yada yada but I have finally got it together after a loooong process of accumulation of parts. Thanks to everybody off STW who I got bits off.

Not had a 456 but have had a regular inbred, a blue pig and a soul - they're all very different bikes. Soul's for the "aggressive" rider who attacks the trails, blue pig's for steep, technical downs, and inbred for the kind of rider who hangs on for dear life and hopes to still be on at the bottom

Damn right. Sparkle & son will be in attendance, plus Mr Livsey. I presume all the usual suspects will be there from the 3rd world end of the Pennines? ;0)

Yep, the Yarkshire crew is growing. We were thinking of taking the Hull Zeebrugge then the Ostend Calais ferries to get down to the arse end of the world below London and making a trip of it!

bungie - yes, that seems to be the straightforward way of getting there... I was just planning on pointing the Batmobile South for 5 hours.

If only it had been called a "blue sheep" even us Yarkshire boys would have louvre'd her. I always worry about you almost southern lot and your fancy geared dandy horses 8) Hows the bairn doing with his drinking practice ?

NBT ta for that

The only thing is I also own a Simple and it makes me ride like a bit less of a holigan compaired to the 456

So I hurt myself a bit less ๐Ÿ˜ณ

He's doing very well, ta. It's his 18th on Wednesday so I think some more practise will be taking place then...
