Sponsorship is a two-way street so when I sold What Mountain Bike a story about what cars for mountain bikers I shamelessly rinsed every opportunity to make good on the various blags I've enjoyed of late. Cut price Orangebikes? Get both of them in the pics as much as possible. Orange VW Caddy van loaned to me for six months? Ditto.
