I’ve got one of these,

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=28862

It doesn’t need any fixings, but is still nice an solid, admittedly it’s a bit pricey but as it is over my bed I wanted a good quality one as I didn’t want to be rudely awoken by a bike to the face, here’s some pics to give you an idea of the space it takes it up

Hope this helps

I think there based on an A4, so you could do a lot worse!

Am I missing something. . . . Down where?

When radio 2 became a preset on the cars radio!

The imperial march for when the mrs rings me!

I was Madame tussauds recently and got told off by the mrs for ogling the Jessica Ennis!!

Forgot about Octavias as well! Might have have to go see a few of them!

+1 on the touran,

Ooh, I bet there gonna cost a bit!

Smuttie- I’m back home now but from we heard before we left pleney should be open on Wednesday

Found the spiral today, and for everyone asking about about the weather, we’re in the middle of a thunderstorm right now!

Where is that spiral?

Poonprice- this is what we’ve been using http://morzineweather.com it seem to have pretty accurate we had a bit of heavy rain last night but everything was still rideable today, saying that we didn’t go near any north shore today

gsp1984, I had continental gravity on when I arrived here but the front kept washing out so I’ve got some maxxis high rollers on it now 2.35’s, super tacky on the front and 60a on the back, seems to work well

Mk1fan, mont chery side is open, but most people seem to sticking to the les chavannes side of les gets

I_ache, we paid about £100 each for the chalet, about £70 each for the euro tunnel €70 in tolls (per car)on the French roads!!!!!!! And the spending money after that not sure about bike hire costs, and you could always fly down here, there’s a few ways of doing it!

Not the best quality but a few more pics from today

Mont Blanc in the distance amongst the clouds, I’ll try and get some shot of the trails up tomorrow,

Not me, my mate ben, but you can see how nice it is at the moment

Few mor pics

Weeksy- Seen a few HT’s so far, TBH I’m trying to stay well within my own limits of skill, I’ve not been here before and I really wanna last all week without a trip to hospital, I think as long as you stick to your limits you can ride anything within reason seen a few XC bikes an I’m on an orange five but I’m still havin a great time!!!!

There’s a few puddles in the wooded bits at the moments but nothing much! Just about head out on day 2, will put some more pics up tonight hopefully!

Igm you are correct, we’re staying in morzine but we explored down to les gets today, I love the trail straight down from here had me grinning all the way, there is potential for thunderstorms midweek but hopefully the trails will stay open, we checked the forecast when we arrived this morning and decided to get straight out, incase today was the only good day!

Here’s my 1×10,

11-36T cassette and 34T chainring, only on a steep road descent at the end of a ride have I missed having a big ring, haven’t really missed the granny ring at all yet,

Had a fury a few years back when I started riding, thought it was great, had it a year until some pikey nicked it! for the price you pay for one I think you could do a lot worse

Have you thought about Cube? I might have a 2011 18″ ltd team for sale soon, let me know if it something you consider?

Brycey that is a lovely motor, im still running my 06 A3 S-line, but I want an A4 avant soon!!!

I think it’s great, however explaining why I was laughing at the Doppler effect joke to the mrs was a bit of a challenge, bless her!!!!!

What’s this Audi thing all about, if your judging someone by what they drive/ride then you’d probably hate me,

Audi -check
Orange FIve – check
Orange P7 – check

I ride because I love riding, even if all I could afford was a cheap halfords bike I’d still ride, why be a hater just because some people worked had to afford nice cars/bikes, and the whole thing I hear about people only buyin them so they can boast there bike is uk built(even though some aren’t), I like to think its people wanting to support the British economy rather than sending our hard earned pounds overseas, I think orange bikes are awesome, I’ve never ridden anything as much fun as my five!

I took the Mrs for her birthday last year, she really liked I’d, even if she did do most with her closed. I found it a bit tame to be honest, might be something to do with the fact I used to climb alot and heights don’t really phase me, still good fun though, if its a first time you’ve done anything like it you should really enjoy it,

My orange P7 (not quite ready yet)

now im scared to ride it!!! 🙁

Allen Carr worked for me, I stopped four weeks ago, went from 20 a day for 10 years to nothing just by listening to a £7ish pound audio book, I’ve been surprised how easy i have found it, I would almost say I have enjoyed quitting, there’s a good bit in the book where he says if he could put you in your body three weeks after quitting thats all he would need to do, i feel like my lungs have grown, i have more energy, more money, and her indoors say the bedroom antics have improved, my only regret is not doing it sooner. good luck with it, it a great feeling when someone offers you a ciggie and you can say “no thanks i quit”

Being a member of the forces, I don’t have a bad word to say about landys, my unit have had the same 4 landys in Afghanistan since 2007 with very limited servicing and they are all still going strong today, it doesn’t seem to matter what we throw at them, they just take it. For getting around in rough conditions I don’t think there’s many things out there that can beat them, but for comfort, I’d keep looking around a bit

SHORT?!, I`m a lofty 5ft9 and a half!!!! the cube is an 18″ and the five is 16″, i rode a mates 18″ five and prefered the 16 when i went to see that before buyin it,

im based at odiham in hampshire but head home to weymouth most weekends and ride around there alot
