Cold Weather on the Way

Snowy Bike
It looks like the icy chill of winter has finally arrived. Blisteringly cold conditions will challenge even the hardiest of MAD extreme mountainbikers. But wait! There's still hope. We have one (and only one) MAD winter jacket remaining (size S) and it can be yours for the bargain price of €88.50. A small price to pay to luxuriate in warmth and comfort all winter long. But hurry, this jacket is not available in any shops! Contact Sean J Downey now (086 335 4576) and you too could be one of the best dressed bikers in town.

    ah yes - good point Barry, it'll be a while before we order more jerseys as there's a minimum order qty to be met in order to make them affordable - will keep u posted though.

    Don't forget, these jackets are the warmest thing known to man, at least 3 Eskimo's are known to wear them during the cold season in the Arctic......What else do you think keeps Santa Claus' warm as he soars above the Pacific Ocean of a Decenber night except a MAD winter jacket.
    Toasty. And warm. And waterproof.
    Worth every cent on a freezing February day.
    Did I mention they're amazingly, unbelievably warm?

    "so they're warm?? "

    Yes....sorry you had to work so hard to decipher that from my previous post. ;-)

    BTW, although its a size small, it should be good for most people up to just below 6', as they run quite large.

    I might have a short sleeve jersey for ya lad, if you're stuck. What size do you take?

    Truth be told, I have idle bikes that could do with some use too, but that's a whole nother story.

    Let me know if you want the jersey though, still in its wrapper, ne'er been worn.

     
  • At 8:52 p.m., Blogger Martin said…

    i would buy it but im out of money and i already have 1

     
  • At 9:45 p.m., Blogger Ryan Sherlock said…

    Just to reiterate... Those jackets are amazing. I've been using mine most days since I got it. For any weather less then about 10C it's perfect. A jersey under it any your flying for almost any conditions.

     
  • At 10:01 p.m., Blogger glenn-danzig (aka barry o'brien) said…

    alright mick, i would be interested in that jersey!

    i'd probably be able to wear any size from small to large as i'm tall and thin.

    how much?!?

    Sorry lads, only occasional access to the interweb.

    Jersey is L, I'll let it go for cost price, or if you ask real nice, I'll round it down to nearest multiple of five. I don't even remember what that is, so I'll say 30.

    As for where I've been hiding, mostly Blackrock, though tonight I'm back to my bad old habits of the random hotel rooms.

    Mick's job as a high class male escort is really interfering with his biking these days.

     
  • At 1:14 p.m., Blogger glenn-danzig (aka barry o'brien) said…

    Grand job, sold to Danzig.

    You can pick it up from me soon, when I put my bike back together and start cycling again, or alternatively from Paddy. Or you can pick it up from the house.
