@ Ultimate dude, live strong has nothing to do with lance anymore.

He created it, it has everything to do with him.

Like a divorced couple? They will forever have everything to do with each other.

I did buy a pair of 5.10s from there, seeing as you can't always get them locally. Worked out to a fair price incl. customs.

 

It is actually not worth it to by clothes on CRC, even after the discount.

 

Yeah, buying clothing from CRC is only useful for items you can't source locally otherwise you'll end up paying pretty much the same unless the customs guys are sleeping on the job.

I got slaughtered with the tax.......NEVER again.

Hi Gents,

 

Just wanna know if you pay import tax when ordering clothes from Chain Reaction Cycles.

I ordered some stuff from livestrong.com and had to pay a crapload when collecting at the post office.

 

Thanks in advance.

The Hub's search function seems to be my enemy, its a bit of a pain in the buttock

Ok ok ok, to all fellow hubbers and cyclists, read carefully.

I'm gonna break it up into very simple but powerful terms.

 

In my opinion:

 

Lance inspired me to cycle, that’s something that will never change!

 

Watching the Tour is crap now... Now we gotta watch people like evans and wiggans, sigh, I donno what it is bout them that annoys me so much… They win **** but they are not Champions, they have no chance becoming the goat, or taking the sport to another level and the worst of all, - absolutely no chance of inspiring you. But Lance on the other hand…

 

Be very careful pulling the moral high card on Lance because everyone lies at some point.

So next time you wanna say something bout Lance round the dinner table, first reflect on your own life.

 

Now for what lance did :

The way which he destroyed the people who accused him was unacceptable and cruel, it kinda makes me think that he’s a sociopathic mal bliksem! I lost all my respect for him because of that.

 

So please stop complaining that he is a liar and a cheat because the chances that u have done one of those, or associate with some one that has, are almost 100%

 

Now u know what lance did and now u know why u should be angry with him..

 

Live strong is a cool organisation that has nothing to do with what lance did, that’s why they cut him loose.

 

Cheers
