    Is it just a £10k mistake then, well minus the scrap value???

    Linky to paper report if you missed it!

    Money went to charity – which is the main thing.

    Uncle Jimmy did a lot for charity, so he must be alright, really.

    Maybe Lance could borrow them for a charity ride.

    Imagine the publicity! What could possibly go wrong?

    So, who were the Big Hitters they were bidding against ? 😛

    Maybe split them for parts on eBay

    I’d guess bin them.

    It’s not OnOne’s fault that they were taken in by Saville’s good PR.

    Saville had spent a lifetime keeping his evil behaviour secret. At the time I seem to recall everyone referring to him as a saint who did work for good causes. Sadly we were all taken in.

    more importantly – who is to blame for them buying them?

    I think a tin of black paint may be required at On-one HQ
