The clamp on the white seatpost looks a little strange, is it facing the wrong way? (looks like it's clamped all the way down at the front with a gap at the rear)

Nice colour though.

why does the green bike, which is clearly a sd inbred, have an orangebikes.co.uk sticker on it?

Your bike stand doesn't match the colours. get it repainted sharpish.

Tazzy, beware of the slippery slope, that's the route I went down before getting the ti29er...
