Client meeting today with a crew from Berkhamsted, two of them coming up.

Being hospitable we suggested they arrive around 10am – 2.5 hours meeting and we would take them for lunch. Their response:

“Forget lunch, if we can get through the agenda before 12 can you take us out on your local trails if we bring our bikes?”

😀

I am only in St Albans, can I come too? promise I’ll keep quite

Just started work re-profiling companies on our target client list.

I have a client on the Swiss/Italian border…. time is always found for a road ride in the mountains when I go over. I just have to take clothes/shoes/helmet and he lends me his spare BMC to save the hastle of taking a bike. Mustn’t grumble.

Ooo. Who you meeting from Berko?

No names, no pack drill – client confidentially and all that.
Cracking ride out – amazing how much we managed to discuss while on the move. All meetings should be done this way. This may be the format for our quarterly meetings from now on. 😀

Love my job most days.

Although on a wet / windy day at Rivi ………….maybe :o)

mountainbiking truely is the new golf 🙂

it would be very cool if it were to recognised as as good a way of doing business informally as a trot round the golf course!

How much did you back off/hold back on the climbs/descents, can’t beat the client after all!

😆 difficult choice, patronise them or beat them.

No names, no pack drill – client confidentially and all that.

Seriously?

I used to live in Tring and know some of the Berko lot, which is why I asked. ‘Jez with the Five’ would have sufficed, just so I could be jealous of a lunch spin. I’m really not interested in stealing company secrets about whatever it is you do, or any of your clients.
