A new visitor to our garden today.... I should probably be less pleased, but it *was* pretty cute scooting up and down the sunflowers. As long as it doesn't get into the shed and nibble my bloomin' tyres!!!

Hah! we thought it was cute when they started going to our bird feeder too, first one, then three or four, all squirming around, climbing over each other; they got in the shed, they got in the house; less cute. Buy a cat.

Hummmmmmmmmmm:scratch:
I think it's probably a promo one as it doesn't have the Pro teams racking system on the roof. Another clue would be in it's registration number as all the Team Sky ones have a 'SKY' reg' number. Nice set of wheels to drive around in though!

You certainly couldnt tell by that registration plate.........it could also be a single rider recce the TOB course and doesnt need multiple roof mounts

Cool. Indeed it is beautiful. Hope you had a great time. Wonderful place to ride too, I would imagine.

Very hilly :okay:

Interesting comments but as you say, you can't see the Reg' plate in the picture and having worked with some of the guys from Team Sky I can assure you that they wouldn't be messing about swapping the roof carriers over to standard Thule ones just because one lone rider is recce'ing a route. The racks they use on the team cars are made specifically for the car and the bikes it will carry so they leave them on all season and just use the slots needed on each occasion. Also it doesn't have the car to rider radio aerials that the genuine team cars have. Still a nice little runaround for somebody though!
