Go on then, what did you get?
I got a jersey each for me and the Mrs, three caps and a nice Vuelta t shirt. Not too bad fer 80 squid. A bloke there spend £4.5k while we were in! I think he may have been selling some of it on...

I went to the invite-only preview on the Friday night. Far more civilised!

Got a couple of nice mid-weight cycling tops and a pair of trousers. £110 total, not bad considering that any of those items on their own would have been more than that at full retail.

Hmmm, how did you find out about the sale and where was it, sounds like a physical shop rather than online? So I don't miss out next time...

it was posted on road.cc and they also had it on the rapha site (not that I frequent their site...i'm too poor).

I drove past this morning at 11 and the queue was round the block, didnt bother. went back later in the afternoon and it was much quieter.

Not that great really, quite a lot of crap but I found a decent jersey and a pair of jeans.

However, if you want to kit yourself out like team sky you are sorted, the cheshire lanes are going to be fred central this year

Thanks.

I still have his voucher. He does have all the kids cycling stuff that Rapha does already though. 🙂

" I found a decent jersey and a pair of jeans."

Ditto.

Lots of stuff up on eBay today, probably most of the 4.5k hoard.

I got the worst cup of coffee in the world, served in a pint glass. 😉

Mind you, that wasn't actually in the sale.

Saw quite a few people out on today's reliability trial in US & Dutch Rapha jerseys...

Got a couple of nice Merino long lseeved jerseys. Complete bargain at £30 each. It did feel a bit like a feeding frenzy in there though .....

Then headed off to the velodrome in the evening for the Revolution track meet - top night out.
