It’s worth losing money to get out of the EU, but won’t put his hand in his pocket to buy British or support British bike shops.
That would indeed be the stench of hypocrisy.
He loses!
The Canyon was purchased in 2011 when the bike industry in the UK and bike brands available was vastly different.
Apart from being ill informed he now looks even more stupid after his rant. I'm glad to have put the idiot back in his boxAll lies and jest..still a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest....0 -
Well if I recall in 2011 Canyon had a huge reputation for quality and changed one of the dimensions of buying by ordering straight from the manufacturer. Then I bought an Orange bike - which designated itself a British bike - very happy with it - poor welding - well it looked poor and overpriced - but the P7 Pro at the time had a very good reputation. I don't recall any British bikes there in competition and Canyon was sweeping the Board at the time.
I've not tracked the British bike industry from 2011 but assuredly it is very different. You would not have wanted to buy a bike from Halfords then....take your pickelf on your holibobs....

just another proof that fanatical whining brexiters are of low intelligence
Maybe you believe that fanatical whining brexiteers are of low intelligence and maybe they are. And maybe fanatical whining remainers are too. But your opinion does not constitute proof in any sense of the term.
This is the internet - calm down!
It really is remarkably easy to use the internet to see the demographics of remain and leave voters0 -
What has demographics got to do with the discussion being elaborated here? I doubt whether the demographics bias that you suggest is evident from 'the internet' - I think that you may mean resulting from internet searching but unless there is a sample size of 1 then the r**2 (correlation coefficient) will render interpretation meaningless.
Maybe you don't know what a demograph is....take your pickelf on your holibobs....

may clearly intended to demonstrate, as if were it needed, what a complete fuckwit he is, but trump doesn't even understand the usa, the rest of the world is so far beyond his comprehension there's really no point paying him any attention at all
the way that the pathetic bojo, moron, dacre et alia hang on his every word only goes to show just how debased they really are
couple of years, he and his coterie of scum will be on the way out, whining all the way no doubtmy bike - faster than god's and twice as shiny0 -

I want to know what court you'd take them to
The European Court. But I'd rather know on what basis they would be sued. It's a preposterous idea with no basis in reality, which is probably why Trump came up with it...0 -

Anyway back to the subject.
Trump is off to meet his best buddy having trashed May's party and shown us the contempt he has for the UK. Why not? Our government has been so shockingly bad that it was a doddle for our enemies to engineer a Brexit referendum win thus severing us from some of closest allies. Trump has sealed his approval for that disaster and labelled the EU as one of his country's "greatest foes". Of course we are used to Trump's hype and his apparent backtracking from such shocking statements. Perhaps we should start to believe the hype and dismiss the backtracking. One moment May has blown a US trade deal, next moment it's 'possible'. Possible if we toe Trump's line and do as we are told.
His next task is to defeat democracy in his own country. His own election has shown what can be done towards that objective. Once that is achieved we will face as an opponent the World's most heavily militarised country whom we once thought of as a friend.
May just had a last chance to stand up to this bully and she blew it.0 -

Halfords were the sole distributor of Boardman bikes back then, they were excellent value for money bikes and you got to help your local bike shop too by taking it to them to be checked over before riding it.0 -

Why are you obsessed by Fishfish?0 -
At a guess, because he/she/bot writes Pishpish.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

At the time my local Halfords had a few Wiliers and a Van Nicholas in the window. I'm not sure the staff knew what they were but nonetheless they were for sale.1985 Mercian King of Mercia - work in progress (Hah! Who am I kidding?)

I see Trump is saying relationships with Russia have never been worse.
He's not big on history is he ?0 -
Anyway, getting back to Halfords, my only real experience of them was a few years ago when my Cateye front light packed on my commute. I went in and asked if they could fix it. "Nah, sorry mate it's bolloxed, here take this one" and handed me a new replacement 'on the house'.0

THis - brilliant bikes, fantastic value for money, ridden by the knowledgeable mocked by the clubbie.
£500 for an excellent carbon/Ali frame, full carbon fork, full WCS seat post, stem bars and 10 speed full Dura Ace? Brilliant stuff.
In fact I have one of those in the garage.Postby team47b » Sun Jun 28, 2015 11:53 am
