What wwaswas and akira said - the vast majority of the forum dwellers from shops on here are (fairly!) discrete, helpful, offer advice and contribute to the community (I hate that phrase, but there you go) without it simply being a guerilla marketing campaign. The eedyat acting as a one-man cyclelife/Raleigh marketing vehicle ticked precisely none of those boxes.

akira if you work for a shop why is not linked from your username - I thought this was a gentlemans agreement after the fruit business?
genuine question.

paying for an ad shouldn't mean you can spam the forums every time somebody asks what bike!

Likewise with Si, if we pee you off in anyway, just let us know to shut up and I will. Don't want to be a PITA

I think having industry types (apart from fruit and that raleigh bloke) contributing and playing an active part is one of the best things about this forum, don't scare them off!

Meant to post a while ago saying I had a very nice experience with TBC, actually that sounds wrong, bought something and two charges appeared so I emailed, very quick response but then one of the charges vanished, bit bizarre but impressed with the service.

I think having industry types ... contributing and playing an active part is one of the best things about this forum
really ? I don't know who they are or care, as for 99% of the topics they're no more authoritative than anyone else

I think it's probably a young whippersnapper who mends punctures for his saturday job and has been given work in the school holidays to do some guerilla marketing for a group of bike shops.
Doing it pretty clumsily though. And getting threads closed in the process.
