Thetford bike shop High Lodge visitor centre (Bike-Art i think its called), was about to blow a few hundred quid on gear until I was served by one of the rudest men I have ever spoken too!. Was it because I'm not 'local'?

I'll wont be using them again. Good news is the Trails were good fun, if a bit muddy!!

My experience if the fella that runs it (admittedly, this was a good while ago, it might be a different fella now) is that he is a miserable to$$pot.

Myself and a mate were riding there and needed to borrow a shock pump.

I asked "could we borrow your shock pump please" however I think he may of misheard us as the way he reacted you'd think I said "last night I took your mum up the wrong 'un"

Needless to say not a penny of mine has passed through his till since.

I haven't been there for years until a few weeks time.

I'll be glad to tell him he's a to$$er.

Only if he can't chase me or has a shot gun under the till.
