Hang on Sue !. I thought you were planning on getting a Bicycle... and now there is Cycle hanger at the end of our road...

You have no excuse...


.. Bicycles and Ale are never a good combination... though it seems to be a good idea until you have to push the thing home. :)

Which suggests that it's probably a good shop name (even if it is grim). You (who I suspect has no interest in yoga and sports wear) noticed it and remembered it. That's a catchy name.

oh, but there is science involved...it's not just pretty colours and exclusive price tags. It's about ergonomically designed clothes and all sorts of other factors..


Did you know - for example "In sport, compression clothing has been designed to improve recovery following exercise and training. A similar concept applies to the tight-fitting shirts worn by a number of the teams in the finals of the 2007 World Cup for Rugby Union, with claims of increasing energy levels through transfer of ions to the body".


I quite like watching the rugby, hadn't though there was a reason for their tight tops....

I quite like the concept of www.fatladattheback.com (although it seems they specialise in cycling).


Personally, I like swimming, but wearing the right gear for sport can make you more inclined to actually use your gym membership....

I'll definitely have a look when it opens and maybe find some inspiration.


Maybe we could have a ED runners club (beginners-and-not-too-far for starters...

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying. 
    • Hello, Does this lovely little panther have a name? & Is he neutered & microchipped?
