Very high prices, very rude staff, very patronising.
They don't sponsor any riders on the UCI pro tour, I don't see Ullrich or Zabel walking into their shop asking for their advice....... I don't see where the attitude comes from. Hell, the guy who runs it isn't even an ex pro, not even close. I must agree with simon, he does smell and his head does look like a coconut. All I see in front of me when I spoke to him is a pretender a wannabe, but one that realises his time has gone.

From the tone of one of them it seems the troll's actual gripe with the shop is that they wouldn't sell him any sex trousers. Perhaps he/she was in the wrong shop?
And the 'second' post (I agree post) came in seven minutes before the 'first'. Is this the birth of a 'trollet', a cross between a troll and a muppet.

I think to get the right balance of dumbness, naffness and sheer offensiveness to society, the specimen could be called a "mullet".

"One of the gigs was in Kidderminster at a venue called Frank Freeman's Dancing School. This was in the days when groups were called things like Creedence Clearwater Revival or New Riders of the Purple Sage, and one of the band said to me: 'Hey, that's a really groovy name.' 'Not really,' I told him. 'It's a dancing school run by a man named Frank Freeman'."

Its also identical to a couple of posts from the same BT IP address back at the beginning of February. Some numpty obviously has a vendetta to wage against the shop

Yes, I remember that. I don't know the shop, but if I ever come across it I might just go in there and buy something out of spite against the stupid mullet[1] that's wasting my bandwidth.
