I love this site. Most people's "hacks" look several times more fancy than my good bike

To be fair I was pulling a leg or two when I called it a hack. I'm so chuffed with the bikes that i just had to show them off.
I recently secured funding for a fleet of six bikes for my team at work. The Acid came out on top in terms of componentry for the money given the budget I had. LBS did a bazzin' deal on the bikes plus all the necessary extras, and the team are as pleased as punch. Lucky me!

Ah cool, just make sure your guys don't ride on the pavements. It really annoys me when I see the coppers cycling on the pavements.

Please feel free to point out the error of their ways.
...... but don't forget there may be a good operational reason to cycle on the pavement!

Young Un - they're actually running a sting operation: you see them riding on the pavement so you think it is ok to do it yourself and then they'll catch you for it

You'll probably be wanting to undertake a few changes, a set of slick tyres, a blue light?
With all that extra kit, off-road tyres and protective clothing you'll soon get fit!

Oh very good!
I won't know until I unwrap it in a few hours time. Santa appears to have left a large bike-shaped object in my stocking while I was at work tonight. I've just got in and can't wait........

Slicks are for people who aren't tough enough to grind around on knobblies
....... and anyway our latest project has involved patrolling the Sustrans routes for burglars. They're all bordered by tracks and paths, so I have insisted we hone our off-road skills during the slack times
