Coming back from 3 weeks of interweb-and-mobile-phone-free camping can be quite traumatic. Thankfully sorting through my emails is a relatively easy task, just select some and hit del.
One email caught my attention with the subject line" surly bike", from Oliver at Tredz, who had read my somewhat negative blog post about trying to buy a frame from their shop (he did better than me,I can't find it!) and apologised for the negative experience I had had. Cool.
I've been back since, complete with 11-year-old cycling mad daughter, who was somewhat bowled over by the place. I was helped quite considerably by a chap for whom nothing was too much trouble and came away with pretty much everything I went for, which just doesn't happen locally - our local shops are so cash strapped they don't carry anything but a minimal stocklist, and the standard andswer to any request is "I can order one for you..."
So folks, if you're anywhere nesar Swansea Or Cardiff, go to Tredz! It's ace.
