We should have heard something by now...Janet, are you and Scout doing okay?

[Maybe they're already off on a Grand Adventure... ;D ]

Best,

Dan.

Well, Scout has indeed arrived. Came in a bloody great box - I had murder getting it thru the porch and front door. When I looked inside she was complete, wheels attached and everything. In the past I have had to put them together. Not that I'm complaining mind. Had to tip her up on her a*se to get her thru the door and this also made her easier to get out of the box.  She was well wrapped up in foam.  So took my time to undo her carefully. She is perfect in every way.

Would you believe I haven't been out on her yet??? Had a lovely morning fitting her peddles, lights, bottle cage, pump and luggage rack (all the best bits off my other bikes). By the time I was satisfied it was poring down and has continued to do so for the rest of the day. She is up here by my bed!!! ::) (just for tonight, it was murder getting her up the stairs :o

Roll on tomorrow we are off out to give her a shake-down and see what she can do (shut up legs). And yes I will take photos.


Cheers,
a very happy Janet

I bet you wake up a lot just to have another look, and then go back to sleep to dream of all the places you are going to go together. Sweet dreams. :)
Regards Alfie

I'd say Janet looking out her window this morning and seen a lovely blue sky and said I'm out of here ,the around around the block test run turned into an epic ride.

either that or she can't get the bloody bike out the front door.
i'm hoping it's  a epic spin tho. ;)

anto.

Hi everyone. Sorry I'm late in letting you know how I got on. I was out last night at a lecture on Shakespere that was very interesting but I didn't take Scout because I didn't want to worry about her throughout the lecture.

I have done a review of her and Yes I have photos.

Please note I have changed my username from TabbyCat to RST Scout ;D
