Rapha/Rouleur - the final straw

Chip \'oyler

I've always been a staunch fan of Rapha, buying loads of their product and defending them from numerous criticism on this forum.

But chuff me. They've started having bloody 'Supper Clubs'!

What's the problem? Having a chat with Eddie Merckx while enjoying some fine food sounds splendid to me!

Sounds good to me.

It's not exactly grassroots though is it!

Don't get me wrong I like the idea behind it - but call it 'An evening with the Cannibal' or something. Not some poncy, middle class 'Supper Club'! Did Miss Marple sit next to Eddy's left and Dale Winton on his right?

I don't think it's aimed at you Chip!

Although I didn't realise supper clubs are "middle class"!

Have they got "Daddies" brown sauce ?

At the risk of apparent ridicule I, and a couple of mates went. It was, in fact, an excellent evening! Not cheap, but worth it for the occaision.

I would say that's a decent description of Rapha.

Poncy and middle class?

Because it isn't deep-fried?
