I would have gone for incipient incompetence me, myself, - I can't get the blinkin' box open!

 

[ttcycle]

I'm sure you've got a willing band of London and Home Counties helpers - we just might spirit away the bike instead

 

[Wigsie]

Enough of this drivel... Mods.. room 101 ??

You've been distracted by the bubble wrap, haven't you teef?

I suggest you go here for all your popping needs. But not until you've opened that box.

I think he's fallen down the stairs - we should call the police

I remember that programme.

'Take Your Pick' with Michael Miles and the gong. Bob Danvers Walker was the announcer.

Anyway, I stripped away the cardboard and there was a bike inside. Bit of a surprise I must admit, but any disappointment was soon diminished by the advent of a huge bit of bubble wrap. (As Luke points out... )
So, I'm popping down the road now...

...only joking.

And the leftover bits, 4 x tyres, tubes, Keo2 Max pedals (I think ) - but I need to sort out an Allen key or two- I'm a bit of a technical wuss, so bear with me.

But first I'll have a cuppa.

Vile!

 

[ttcycle]

nice, very slick! be careful Ian may want to steal your tyres.

I think Look pedals have a line marking the left pedal (i think)

EDIT: On second thought - overhyped- needs a paint job; how about a splash of pink Teef?go with the blue

 

[swee'pea99]

oi seen one o' they bee-for, wot you got there is called a bye-sickle....

 

[threebikesmcginty]

Swap?

 

[Aperitif]

Similar patina, but yes.
I'll swap your garden for my bike IIIBM!

I think he wants it painted Celeste green, just like mine, but obviously PX can't do that colour so he got it plain for now.
I'll be around later with a can of paint

What's that on the front cranks Teef? Looks like a chainring but it's sooooo small. You'll never keep up with me and Davy on that

 

[Mycroft]

Absolutely beautiful and stunning pics, I'm quite jealous.

hope you have lots of fun with all that cardboard, lots of fun just waiting there for you.

but why ruin it with all this bike nonsense?

I believe that H&S dictates a minimum of three days for unwrapping such a big box without injury!

We have manual handling courses for such large items now
