Why can't I log onto Marin Bikes in the US?

If I type in Marinbikes.com it redirects me to the UK site but I want to look at the US one.

I'm running XP and IE7 on an IBM Thinkpad through Tiscali broadband.

Any ideas?

Their US site will examine your IP address, work out it's in the UK and then redirect you to the UK site.

You could use a proxy website (hosted in the states) to access marinbikes.com. Like http://www.proxybrowsing.com for example.

If you have an idea what you're after, type site:www.marinbikes.com into the Google search box.
