Tour de Ville "Grand Opening" 13 - 12

Nice work TdV. It was really nice to hang out in the shop and have time to browse all the lovely bikes and bits. I'm lusting after bikes on a whole new level.

Me and George Sportif popped in today and it's a jaw droppingly great place! We had a cup of tea and drooled over all the bikes. The cream Colnago is to die for, want want want!

Excellent work Jos & Keith! You have a very special place there. Gum/Gum tyres FTW! :)

Unintended bike porn side effects #34. Sounds as if Jos and Keith will have quite a bit of mopping up to do after this week-end ...

A Tour De Ville Bib was suggested for eager customers & enthusiasts alike! ;)

Well done, guys! Can't wait to come and see the store for myself! Brilliant news! :D

good work you guy's, nice to ride over and pop in.thanks for the beer . some good stuff there. (don't forget me fnckin' forks :)

It would be good if you could put something outside to lock your bike to. I locked mine to the stair-case round the corner. A bit hidden away, slightly wary of something being stolen from it.
Wishing you all the best.

Nice shop boys. You've done yourselves (and us lot) proud. See you soon.

Iron bars will be installed along the walls at some point to lock the bikes up. There are still a lot of things that need to be sorted out to make it the way we have in mind.

Yeah, don't forget the bikini-clad waitresses/mechanics... That's a total winner... I expect that idea to have been actioned by the time I'm back in Lundunberg... ;]

shop looks good.

will pop in when im in the area.

well done lads!

Forgot to log-on and for a moment it looked like murtle was sponsored by Halfords! Good luck - hope 2009 is really profitable for you.

Surely you mean TdV rather than Halford's ... ?

I think they might be tubs. I've definitely seen some that colour before.

Thanks for the friendly reception guys.
Nice tea + bits + bikes + books + clothes + bartape + frames + ...

Bugger.

A gorgeous place, as soon as I stepped beyond the threshold a little voice in my mind was chanting 'I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT I WANT' the whole time I was in there.

It turned out to be my iPod skipping during Dire Straights, but the sentiment remains.
