Sundays for me have always been about spending time with family and friends and – wherever possible – riding my bike!
The nature of our business is such that our small team is at times swamped by the tedium of admin, essential though it is. This has the potential to hinder our ability to deliver our customers the premium service that we believe you should expect from a quality and most of the time bespoke retailer.
In order to take some time back for myself, my staff, and our families (as well as satisfy our habitual need to ride bikes); and to better deliver a premium service to those that want it, with immediate effect we will be closed on Mondays too!
Nobody panic – there’s a but!
To accommodate those customers looking for a more personalised and dedicated approach to their bike fit and bike build discussions, Mondays will operate on a by appointment basis.
Customers are invited to contact us to pre-book appointments on a Monday when essential. These will be restricted by time, only two slots a day.
This dedicated approach allows enough time for a considered discussion about your bike building requirements as well as time for a full bike fit should you wish to have one. With no other distractions you can enjoy a focused approach to your specific needs and 100% attentiveness. Not to mention coffee.
Andy and I hope you recognise and appreciate our time changes and in reality this means we work together 5 days a week to offer the premium service you deserve.
Many Thanks for your ongoing and highly valued custom, Mark Reynolds

Ross Fawcett finished 48th in the race. He set an attack of the front early in the race but it was all back together quickly. A dedicated no compromise ride reaped the rewards with a fantastic finishing position.
Meanwhile Gary Freeman finished 90th in the race held in Norwich. Gary said "It was a tough race with lots of powerful riders attacking all day" Gary's efforts were rewarded by finishing ahead of some of the countries best riders.
I am sure you will agree that these are great results, so next time you see them be sure to congratulate them on their efforts.

I own a pair of Rapha Pro Team bib shorts and in comparison these offer much better value for money in my opinion. They are currently on the website and in store for £100 which is very competitive in comparison to other premium brands.
I would try the shorts on however as Assos products can appear smaller than expected to ensure a comfortable ride.
That’s all from me this month, next month I travel to Calpe, Spain for my winter training camp. I’ll be reviewing the brand new Continental GP5000 tubeless tyres after riding them for a couple of weeks in numerous weather conditions and on some big descents.
Thanks for reading!
