    That’s sad news harleychic, is that Chippenham, Calne or Swindon?

    The more dealers the better choice we have when shopping

    So what's good about small independant bike shops going out of business??? Soon there'll only be the big ones left like George Whites etc, followed by them being taken over by fecking Tesco, monopolised and dumbed down, every little hurts... Sounds a bit fanciful, but that what's happened to small booksellers who can't buy in the books for what Tesco sell them for, and then they only sell the 'top 10' so publishers won't invest in new unheard of authors. We'll end up with Honda and feck all else!

    Anyway, ranting over! Sad news in my eyes though.

    George Whites

    Excellent company to deal with a 14day money back no quibble hassles free purchasing for past 6 years... Unbeatable prices!

    Unlike some half wit small independant company, 'Artdeans' One of the Director's (moody git) lives down the road from me 'Idoit' two personal instances why I can see they lose sales. 1. Stepson ordered a bike he changed his mind next day fookers would not give deposit back not after one day they said they have llost money becuase they had to put a litre of oil in the little 125. So lost deposit and he went to GW's 2. Director is a miserable git who could not give me the time of day, when I was trying to purchase a Alpinestars suit couple of winters ago.

    I am not bitter ;D ;D ;D ;D PSML

    HC Don't you like curry ;D ;D Hope you claimed for new coat & the emotional disorder you must oF went through :-* :'( :'( ;D
