Only two holders for BEER?

Just picked up my "new" bike on Saturday, 2014 Cervelo R5. It's fast as shit and only weighs a pound more than my 4 month old daughter.

I feel like we need a WAYW When You're Not Wearing Your Normal Clothes thread. Anyway, if I'm not in the stuff I post on the other threads then I'm in this or running gear. I highly recommend the Void jacket for anyone who rides in 35-50 Degree weather.

Looking slick @BloodnThunder.

Just ordered this beaut:
Rocky Mountain 2018 Instinct C70Still love the Capra (just got a coil shock for it) but after 2 years of use I'm even more convinced that a mid-travel 29er is the kind of bike that works best for me and the type of riding I do (or at least 95% of it). Tried a mate's carbon YT Jeffsy and it felt so nice and light that it got me all fired up for a new bike. Wanted something with a bit more reach than the Jeffsy has and it came down to the Norco Sight or the Instinct. And since the latter looks nicer and I got to test ride one that's what I'm getting. The sad part is that it won't be delivered until July so it's going to be a long wait..
Gonna race the Capra in our national enduro series this year (my third season) and after that I'll decide if I want to sell it or keep it for enduro racing and bike park duty.

The new instinct is lots of fun Jii! You're going to love it. If I wasn't a sadist punishing myself on an element it's the bike I'd be on for sure

Not posted here in a while. last thing I added to this thread was a picture of the frame of the Nicolai Geometron I had just bought.
It would be rude not to throw in a finished picture of the bike. 170mm rear travel, Fox 40's wound down to 180mm travel, Renthal 800mm bars, 35mm Renthal Stem, XX1 drivetrain, 160mm Canfield cranks ( Very Low BB on this bike hence the kids cranks! ). Enve 60:40 rims on I9 hubs, Schwalbe Mary and Rock Razor Super Gravity tyres, Fox transfer post, King headset and BB, Time Atac DH pedals, Magura MT7 brakes with 180mm rear and 200mm front rotors. Last but not least my go to saddle a Selle SMP Drakon.
The bike is surprisingly easy to ride. So fast and confidence inspiring, you are centred between the wheels really nicely, no "oh Sh*t, over the bars" moments. I rode it recently at an uplift day and one of my riding pals came along. I had a quick shot on his bike, an old school Intense Uzzi SL. It felt like I had just got onto my 7 year old daughters bike, very strange sensation. Amazing how this muscle memory business works!!
today has been crazy funny cycling day to my worksplace go and back! Around 28km total. Lot of snow! Very cold and dry one! So lot of fun! 300 spikes by wheels! 600watts electric motor. I have been to skiing on bikes!!
