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.

Valve/Logo FAIL! 😉
Hmmmmmmmmm I like tempted to swap my 456 for one of the new ones but my heart still says Soul
Mrsparkle, I hate to be the one to tell you, but they've sold you a duff one, it's not blue, it's orangey red!
Believe me, it's orangey orange!

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
OMG, you're right!! I've just been in the garage and so has me cross bike! Oh nooo!!
(Don't fret, I still do most of my riding SS)
Are you signed up for SSUK yet?
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)
Ace, it looks happy. Make sure you give it a good thrashing 🙂
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!
BWD, will do mate!
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 😳

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