Most shops (cycle) in Thart Larndorn welcome you in with your bike. So, lets assume you’ve ridden in and pop along to said shoppe, you ring da bell and they open and welcome you in, your bike (invariably) sit’s right by the door.. glad of the bell entry now?
Hmmm.. me thinks you is.
There are of course many other shops that cater for “top end” bikes, though I’ve yet to understand what that actually means. Most, not all, have been welcoming to me when I’ve ridden round there trying to find them and I’ve bee surprised at how accommodating and welcoming that have all been. Even the fixie boys “n” girls shops don’t snigger when entering the shop in lycra..
These shops are well worth a visit, you get a different perspective at the very least and unsurprisingly they are devoid of clutter.
Bonus.
And you don’t have to squeeze through endless rows of unsold sub £1k commuter bikes..
Bonus.
Talking of which…..
