Feck - I feel for you Gruffy. You go to all this bother and get let down by the professionals. Thank you for your efforts anyway.

Very late to this and with 90 pages don't want to scan through, but is there a chance to still order any of this stuff or has it all been done and dusted?

Well my other race cut tops are Large, so if anyone has eaten too many pies and can't fit into an L, I'll be happy to take it

Oi!

I may resemble that remark! I'm hoping I've erred on the side of generous when ordering, and not been too ambitious. I'm very nervous now about the packet arriving at the door, seeing as how I've not lost as much of the belly as I'd planned. More miles, more hills, and a greater effort level required, I think.

Do you have a walk-in wardrobe? How very metrosexual.

I have one rail of a walk-in wardrobe, yes. Building that bought me untold brownie points.

I probably won't be able to make the TDPH now but I have ordered a TDPH jersey, I would feel like a bit of a fraud wearing it having not attended so if anyone wants it it's up for grabs (Size MEDIUM).

Drop me a PM if you're interested.

Picked up my Tour jersey today. It really is a quality item, and the design looks even better in the lycra than it does in the photos. Definitely my new favourite jersey.

Very much enjoyed our ride out to Richmond Park too, Gruffy. Sorry I made you late back, hope you made it home in time to freshen up for your lunch appt.

Looks great. Gutted I didn't order now frown, thought 2 PH tops was enough, what was I thinking.

Sorry off topic query on bioracer sizing. My tri club uses them for club gear and the website suggests they come up small and to order 2 sizes larger than usual. On the bioracer website size chart I'd measure a medium (6ft 1" and 70kg). Do i really need to order an XL?

I don't think so, no. I've gone for a M were I'd normally order an L, but I've only ordered Race Proven which is cut for a 'painted on' fit. As best I can judge it's sizing up true to size, but it's worth flagging up that different product ranges are cut to different fits according to purpose. A Bodyfit in M would be much looser than a Race Proven in M, for instance.

Yes. They were collected by a courier on Saturday morning on a 2-3 day service. Even with the bank holiday they should be arriving Thursday/Friday. Once they make it into the system proper you should also get an email from them with tracking details.

Done and dusted for this particular run, but I think there may be enough demand to warrant another batch near the end of summer. If the orders are too small it gets expensive so we need to leave some time between orders to build demand.

Check your emails, BCM. I've had am email, with a link, from myHermes.co.uk containing a tracking number for a parcel of clothing from Gruffy. Sadly, the status of the parcel hasn't changed since 1308hrs on Saturday, when it was "Collected by the courier". The next stage is "received at sender's local depot" and I'm hoping it gets at least that far before the day is out.

Is there any news on the MTB jerseys? Has the manufacturer given an ETA on those?

Hopefully there'll be demand to re-run the "Tour" jerseys then too. They really are very good. Everyone who didn't order one this time should definitely get one next time. No need to have done the tour, they stand up in their own right as an alternative forum jersey. And this isn't at all related to me regretting not ordering more kit in this style either*.

Chased again this morning. Answerphone sadly but I'd expect a response sharpish.
