[Zoo Cookie]

sjoe! you lot are a tough crowd to please.

 

i enjoyed looking around and made a few purchases. had a nice chat here and there to some of the guys and gals.  nice chatting to cyclenut.

i just got home was helping out at the FiT/ Louis Garneu stand ladies were decent but you guys didnt have the view that i had the cape storm girl was amazingly beautiful i really cant believe you guys missed out on that one other than that the adidas girls were the same girls they get for every expo and the bar one girls are also the same ones as last years 94 expo so nothing really has changed

 

 

 

if i might punt a quick one louis garneu is selling gloves at the old price so if you ride with thier gloves and dont want to pay the new price go grab a set or two it really is a good deal!!!!

Dude! Stop! Slow down! Take a breath! Punctuation helps.

 

 

 

i was never good with punctuation and i do everything fast or at least try!!!!!!!!!!!

Disappointed with the cervelo stand. thought they might have the new s range on display.

You must have been blind then!!!!

Was there, saw the new S3 (replacement for the Soloist Carbon) Hmmmm bikePORN!!!!

Also the New P4 TT Bike and a Cancelara Olympic P3 Replica

And a 5.5 kg Full up racing bike built around R3 SL

Don't know where you were looking, but they were all there

[Underachiever]

Boooring, not even a Polar stand. Much smaller than previous years.

 

Great bargains at the Rudy Project Stand.  Bought two pairs of glasses for R1000!!!

 

AND the hottest girl was at this stand, only jeans & T-shift, but the glimpse of all the right curves were soooo sexy!  Much beter that the Adidas girls!

Hmmm.. never saw the rudy project girl... . Damn.. LOL.

How was the whasp stand ?? can somebody take a pic...i cant see it from here...

 

Expensive - but that's not your fault

 

Next to Whasp (sharing the same stand) was SFV's Goji Berry .... on special ... now my wife feeds this to me every day, so if he she sees it at the pharmacy she usually gets 3 or 4 boxes ... the guys behind the Whasp products were servicing both products so I don't think I'm plugging your competition here (?) ... anyway ... I enquired the price of a box of Goji Berry  - R70 was the reply.  Not bad - I called the wife re the price from the pharmacy - R90.  "How many boxes should I get, I asked innocently" - the rep behind the counter held up 5 fingers, I smiled - the wife came back with her response - TEN! To the rep's delight he started packing my purchase - (and included a freebie for me too which was really gracious)and then I had to remind him I had also committed to purchasing 2 boxes of Whasp products as per the "Hub Offer".  Fast closing in on R 1,000 I decided to not take you up on your offer a shirt at a reduced price.

 

We'll stop there for now and not talk about the 2009 frame being prepared for shipment .... talk about a credit crunch.

 

So yes, a good stand for Whasp, well represented, friendly people, good advice.

Nice to see you again too.  I have a feeling you're going to be pleasantly surprised by your time on Sunday.  Ride Safe.

Was definitely smaller than in past years, guess 18k for a stall is a tad heavy under the current economic circumstances.

If I hadn't bumped into IanJ and Sonic I could have been in and out in 15 mins.

As it is I shelled out R300 for a subscription to the locally licensed version  of Cyclesport, spent a few minutes listening to Phil Ligget and decided to duck when Joffe took the mike.

 

Got my number in a minute, pretty quiet.

Like the whasp jersey, you guys took some inspiration from Rock Racing, are they on sale anywhere?

[CScriba]

wasnt the best expo but the cervelo, BH , Focus and solomons were great...some awsome prices aswell...haha wow that new dura ace is magic, rode with it at the shimano stand 

[Evan Andreou]

Thought the Focus stand was great,

was too scared to ask what the Ferrari bikes cost

[quinton]

Pretty well organised - I think

Not the best stands around but I saw a few nice bicycles at the Specialised stand!!

 

A few nice things that one would love to ride at the Addidas eye wear stand  

 

Over all not to bad but not WOW!!

[barrykm]

I would have expected a few more cycle brands to have been represented..? Where were Giant, Bianchi, and Raleigh?

I fell in love though with Wiliers, the Mortirolo looks great to me

 

[quinton]

Raleigh was there with the MTN stand close to the end but I only saw some used Pro riders bicycles.

[Capri Wheeler]

just came back, i have never been so disappointed.

Cervelo had nice stand, guys there knew a FORTUNE!!!

raleigh only had top brands but the pros wee popping in and out whole day...

 

but there was literally NOTHING there

 

[perp]

my son liked the ferrari brochure, he's only 9 months
