I was after a Fabric Horse lock holster and Carrie at Fabric Horse told me that Velorution and Urban Hunter had just been sent some. No guessing where my business has gone...

I'd feel grubby just buying a tyre lever in Velorution. It ain't happening.

mate, just order one from the Fabric Horse website either way, cost no more than £10, and it well worth the money, work extremely well (so far with the Evo Mini), it come in an envelope, so no hidden custom charge and the whatnot.

An absolutely brilliant response from the Blogger that is Amsterdamized.

Italicized is what has been posted previously, but included again for late-comers.

I think I can put this issue to rest by adding Velorution’s commentary on my post/e-mail:
[INDENT]P.S. Below the fold are some of the emails I have received. I would like to single out one remark that is characteristic of the prevalent hypocrisy. Amsterdamize called my previous post “dishonest and discriminatory” and claims that “rather the majority than the minority of (1st/2nd and 3rd generation) of immigrants (most naturalised) uses the bicycle.” How come then, one has to look very hard among the hundreds of photographs he publishes, to see a dark face on a bike. Who is the racist now?
[/INDENT]Velorution, I’m the last one to see things in black and white, whether it regards people or things written down. I read your post twice, because the first time I wasn’t sure whether you were being ironic, sarcastic, or anything else. Maybe I missed a few things that would clear this thing up. Misconception is a rotten thing, certainly on the internet. Hence, I read it again.
There’s absolutely no wiggle room for misinterpretation. You are an ill-informed, generalizing, discriminatory and dishonest person. With this comment, I would add ‘delusional’ and ‘plain dumb’ to it, as well.
No, you got it right, I’m not going to dignify this utter bullshit any further. I’d be lowering my standards.

I leave you with [ame="http://cyclechat.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=15744"]a related discussion on the CycleChat forum[/ame].

Update: Velorution added this and this post to its buckle. I commented the following (waiting for it to appear):
“Well, Andrea, mea culpa? Hardly. Your earlier and apparent intellectual laziness is now pretty clear. You should have thought twice before lumping together many false characterizations and let your bigotry shine through. When you attempted to point out my ‘racism’ and ‘hypocrisy’ because you hardly saw any ‘black people’ in my ‘hundreds of photos’, I could hardly restrain myself from unleashing a DOS-attack on your ‘quaint’ little online bike shop. But then I thought you just weren’t worth having a normal discussion with, let alone lose my temper over. Reading your previous posts and this one I feel totally at ease. My outrage was well founded. You’re so dishonest and inconsistent it’s hard to fathom you can run a business. You basically go from trashing, abusing and discriminating immigrants/black people (or let’s just say ‘not your kind’), to disingenuous backpedaling and (post-related) factual distortion, ending with a half ass and badly baked mea culpa.
It’s so transparent, it’s not hard to feel sorry for you. If you still wonder why I added ‘intellectual laziness’ to the list…my best guess is that you look at pictures the same way you look at those ‘other people’: commonalities. Well, I hate to break to you, but a ‘melting pot’ isn’t called that for nothing. How can you tell (more and more) these days who’s an immigrant, 1st, 2nd, 3rd generation, or anything else? I can’t. (But I know you were looking for those burkas, sure) But then again, what is black, what is brown, what is yellow? I don’t single them out, maybe because they’re just people of Amsterdam and they just happen to be there when I click, regardless. I don’t see how London can be any different from Amsterdam, which demographics have also changed gradually but consistently.
The only conclusion I can come up with is that you haven’t. I sincerely hope you will.”

I could go on, but do you see what I mean? Do you?”

Where the fuck is this Andrea twat from anyway?

I think someone said Italy earlier in the thread?

What a cunt. Sorry, close to the bone, was talking with my better half about a racist incident yesterday. And seeing shit like this just makes my blood boil - again. I hope the arrogant little prick loses big bucks because of this, not just because of the misinformed, blinkered, initial entry but also because of the way he's tried to justify and turn around his poisoned point of view! He doesn't even have the balls to stick to the true spirit of the first entry. Pure fail on so many levels. Fucking prick.

Andrea is originally from Italy - from the North, I think.
