Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I'm bumping this back to the top hoping some of our European members can tell me something about foska.com since their prices are in £ and $.

Perhaps you could summarize some of those comments, as you have to sign up on that forum to even use the search page.

The summary of the posts I read on cyclingplus.co.uk at least seems to be 'cool but pricy'.

I just ordered myself a marmite road jersey - oddly it was cheaper to get it shipped to my US address than it would have been to get it sent to an address in the UK because the shipping costs were still less than the VAT!
