Obviously working for some, but I've been trying all afternoon and it just keeps timing out. Doesn't this happen every time Ribble have a big sale? Must be some stonking bargains....
More problems but still living....

    I've just placed an order, did have to wait a few minutes but I got my bargains. I just bought some sidi ergo 2 for a bargain price of £184. Patience is a virtue :D

    I have noticed before that if you have a look off peak time, late evening or before 9am, it is a lot faster.

    They just need to sort out a better server

    You could have ordered them from Merlin for £179 plus free postage (two second Google on that one)

    Not such a bargain?

    The ribble website is always p*ss poor for me. Times out quite often and is the only website it ever does it on.

    3 percent difference in price (Ribble will be post free as well) - so probably not worth trying to make someone miserable over really........

    Depends on colour and size - white are only £158 until Midnight tonight at Merlin, other colours £176 so may be worth trying to cancel the Ribble order to save £26
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos

    They sent out emails at luchtime saying that their January sale was starting today.




    Oh...maybe this post won't help either.
