Wiggle Australia price match plus 10% off promise
While we encourage everyone to support local bike shops... it's understandable people shop around on-line for deals from time to time.
Right now Wiggle.com.au have a great price promise running: for delivery to Australia, they will not only match, but promise to beat any price inclusive of delivery by 10%.
Note that CRC have up to 50% off Shimano this weekend, and with Wiggle pledging to beat any advertised price... you know what that means! 
BTW, this covers everything Wiggle sell, I only mention Shimano as an example. Details on the promise are here:
Superb customer care....for once
Hey guys, we;re always quick to knock poor service but for once I'd like to give a big shout out to someone doing it right.
I recently bought a T-shirt online from NZO which I'd wanted for some time.
Not a massive deal but still 40 bucks worth.
It turned up in good time and was exactly what I wanted except it was too small for me...I'd ordered a medium and probably should have gone large.

Hornsby Cycles closure
A rather strange facebook update this arvo (indicating that they were too busy to keep going?) from Hornsby Cycles , they are closing up shop after recently moving from their prime spot near the OMV trail head.
Always found them to be helpful, would order things in that they didn't have stock of for me, often at very competitive prices. Shame to see them exit the scene, at least for now.

Bike transport options with Hire Car
Getting down to planning for my first MTB race travel/holiday event at the Cape to Cape. I'm flying to Perth then hiring a car to drive to Margaret River and would like to know if anyone has had any experience with travelling in a hire car with bike? I am assuming the boxed bike will fit in the back (have hired RAV 4 or similar) for the trip down from the airport but will need to get from accommodation to start and back each day plus would love to keep the bike assembled for the few days we plan to spend exploring the region after the race to sneak in some more riding.
Specialized Epic S-Works VS Specialized Epic Marathon Carbon 13'
Hi All,
Looking at the new 14' models coming through shortly, I've been trying to buy my new ride and after talking to Bike shops and working out prices and what not, I'm stuck on which bike to get
As per the heading I'm tossing up between the 13' S-works and Marathon models and If anyone has any personal experiences with either ride, Id love to hear it
I'm looking at about a 2,000 - 2,500 difference and an wondering if your getting that much worth getting the S-works over the Marathon, Being a lot of money I'm trying to be 100% sure before I go ahead
Thanks,
Is this a good deal?
