MTBeer Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 I am not saying dont buy replica team kit!Everyone wants to look like the pro's or support a brand and I am totally cool with dat. But those athletes that has won Worlds are allowed to wear those stripes ... instead of a medal around their necks ... for the rest of their lives. So leave it to them! I ask again, will you buy an Olimpic Gold Medal replica and hang it in your bar? And what exactly will you tell your friends about it! Oh and I did not know or seem to find anything that "Bosch" was trademarked by Boys High. I ride in the Bosch of Stellenbosch baby!very few people i know want that.
KENDA Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Rant on It's only the fun riders that take so much pride and prestige over finishing the epic... I think everyone should just get over themselves. It's not like epic is selling medals. It's like team sky selling there team kit to the public, no one in sky team gives a sh*t... People have such a sense of entitlement. If some fat punk feels he wants to look rich and fit, he can go buy himself a amabubesi jersey... You don't see TDF finishers finishing mid pack crying about TDF merchandise up for sale. It's ridiculous... Now, jump off your high saddle, peel off that epic sticker from a couple of months ago and enjoy your bike, your ego is ruining it for you.

CAAD4 Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 @Skinnysweatyman, will you buy an Olympic Gold Medal replica to hang in you bar? I know I wouldn't, but don't now go and start a fight about houses with bars as features....

Shebeen Posted July 3, 2013 Posted July 3, 2013 Nah don't agree, I've been using the MCC tie I bought on ebay to get me into Newlands members for the last two seasons. Match it with a clipped british accent, a 'i'm just in town on business and wondered if anyone could return a favour' and you're relaxing in comfort and looking at the general public growing pinker by the second while sipping on G&Ts. meh, I'm calling bullsh1t here. no one goes to watch cricket these days.
