The trouble with roadies is they often get carried away on their Sunday bimbles and think they are in the Pro peloton. And there are no shortage of heros with more enthusiasm than talent, always ready to cut you up at the wrong moment, and not afraid to crash, bringing down the rest of the group, to prove their commitment. So I now have cracked ribs and a big hole in my Gore Windstopper top. Does anybody know where I can get this repaired?

Interestingly my Assoss tights got away remarkably unscathed, even though my hip took the brunt of the impact (with the scars to prove it). Shame, cause Assoss (like Crikey, how much) are really good at doing free repairs, whereas Gore are not.

Gore recommend these guys, I've just got a quote from them to repair a tear my jacket, £35

SMG are good - I've previously used Tufftape on both sides when I've been less worried about the visuals.
