Bert, did you get a discount from Specialised for the blog stuff, seeing as you're gonna be a good advert for them?

Best of luck with the trip, looks ace.

Yeah i got shit loads off - £50 worth of tyres, 4 free tubes, 10% off all the Dura Ace & XTR kit, 10% off shoes, free cycle computer, £50 off the wheels and a free bell :D

They gave me all that anyway though, nothing to do with the blog or trip etc - service at Fort Dunlop was awesome!
