    I'm working on Saturday but hope to slip away for a while. I'll probably look ridiculous there in a shirt and tie! :o

    Hey lads, great idea and I plan to attend in search of a new saddle.

    Just wondering if it's worth my while to bring some clothing and bits from the dark side (MTB)?

    Also silver DT RR1450 classic wheelset used handfull of times.

    Have some zero RH fleece jerseys XL too .

    I chucked a SP front light in the box yesterday.

    Would certainly get someone up and running while waiting on a specific item to be on sale

    Never thought of that. Lenny knows me.

    Otherwise the boot is from an Alfa.

    If you don't appear, you'll not get my gear

    Just remember, when my Assos is gone, it's gone...



    Rob, is there a cash machine nearby in case anyone needs a top up?

    Just loading up the van now, I've got quite a decent haul if I say so myself.
    Amazing what you find when you start rummaging!
    Loads of team clothing, wheels, saddles, stems, seatposts, cassettes, co2 cartridges, pumps, tubes, tyres, helmets, shoes, bottles, bottle cages etc etc
    Show your support for the organisers, come on down and grab a bargain from me or from someone else :)

    Sorry guys, but Lance simply did not want to come face to face with Rob

    The show will go on though

    No but I've made a few calls since that bombshell and am happy to announce Cervelo will be replacing Trek as main sponsors this afternoon

    I will be wearing a Team GB T-shirt in celebration

    EDIT: Oh Christ! 25,000 posts. Need to delete a few pages of the Off topic thread to bring it back down a bit...

    Myself,Rob and Eamonater are setting up shop. Any allegations of pre sale dealing are wildly exaggerated.

    Was only out for a bit. Had the little lad with me and he got bored. Fast!

    Beasty had a nice bike there. Wouldn't know what to do with it.

    Saw some nice deep section rims. If only I had time/money!

    The quantity and quality of stuff people had to sell was incredible.Eamonnster,Beasty and Rob Fowl especially. Really could have got myself into trouble.
    And really surprised that some stuff didn't sell.
    Sorry I didn't get to meet all of ya.
    Next time ?
