You're 5' 6" right?

Wow, I'm only 5' 3 1/2" but have an inside leg of 28"!
I obviously stole my legs from someone taller. Remind me to give the left one back at some point, it's crap and keeps trying to fall off!

Its fun having little legs isn't it? My inside leg measurement is 26" so yep, tiptoes for me too! Though the gixer is a lot easier to balance than the SV was.

6'3 and a pie eating 17.5 stone, although the extra few stone is really down to quitting smoking rather than scoffing pies.

Hang on a minute here ladies... I'm getting the feeling this is a 'Stealth Thread'...
