"Which Rapha product is the most Rapha and why"

I can see why they need a copywriter

Actually want to apply for job but unsure if sarcastic response will be the ticket

I applied for an IT gig they had showing a while back.
Didn't get any response guess they are overwhelmed by applicants.
Either that or I didn't prove a real enough interest in the sport of bike racing.

I THINK THE padded shorts are the most Rafferist product you make because they are the connection between the rider and the BIkES contacts point and also where the pain comes from (bum).

Can I have the job?

I am struggling to think of a worse company to be a copywriter for...

Wow. Such pretense. Very black and white. Much cycling.

I thought none of it was Rapha?

DO I GET THE JOB?

"Which Rapha product is the most Rapha and why"

Personally I think the most Rapha of the Rapha products is the Ventoux Eau de Provence soap.
The soothing fragrance and luxurious soft touch of mineral oils really makes being shafted in the price department a pleasurable and bespoke experience.

I'm not so sure. Copywriting by its very nature has an air of dubiety about it, but at least with cycling gear the bullshit quotient is limited.

Also, pretension is often misunderstood, and under-rated.

Wut?

^^ this is all correct apart from the limiting effect cycling has on bullshitting. Cycling is a rich, seamy mine of steaming bullshit, as evidenced by the output of, um, well, Rapha's copywriters, I suppose.

Ausbruch!

Rapha is the best thing that has happened to Munich since Herbert Achternbusch.

Team Sky Pro Team Bib Shorts in XX-Large are the most Rapha thing.

cus they r Epic.

We’re looking for an enthusiastic and organised individual with meticulous attention to detail, superb written English and, of course, a degree of flair. Working alongside the rest of the content team, the successful candidate will need the ability to share and develop ideas, helping create everything from website product copy, to social media memes, in-pack postcards and internal communications.

He negotiated a start date in spring.

The promise of spring, from Willunga Hill to Paris-Nice, is what every road rider looks towards.

This season, he would no longer be a lowly junior copywriter, scratching around for words like a domestique for opportunities. He would be a Rapha copywriter. He would focus on writing as hard as his ability allowed and immersing himself in the landscape. The perfect job to mark the new season of racing and riding. His story was a parable of recent times and summed up the extreme highs and lows of road racing.

Inspired by the increased sunlight and rising temperatures of springtime, he put his pen to paper:

SO SUFFERING

MUCH EPIC

WOW.

Boo. Cannot rep :(

Excellent.

(My tongue is stuffed firmly in cheek.)
