    Are jerseys not part of the order? They're not on the spreadsheet. I'll add in a column for it but if they're not part of then delete away.

    Yeah add it in but we will need a lot more interest to justify the order

    Sorry lads I’m still confused….

    According to the review ( http://crossbikereview.com/clothes/r...entropa-jacket) the Entropa is a shell jacket but according to marcofan it’s a cape “the entropa is a wind proof and rain resistant (verge say rain proof but it gets in eventually) cape”

    I’d define a cape as a light water proof jacket that can be rolled up into the back pocket of a jersey and a shell jacket as a jacket that’s worn on a cold and wet day (if you get my drift)

    So which one is it?

    I believe it's a soft shell windproof / rainproof jacket that can be put on if the weather turns nasty and removed and rolled up into your Jersey pocket when the weather improves.
    Will get marcofan to confirm.

    i would still define it as a cape as it does not have pockets

    its much much better than a standard cape due to the windproofing so it will keep you snug

    I'm not going to have the money until the Friday after that. Just had an expensive stag in Dusseldorf last weekend. If that's a problem I'll remove my order.

    I have the xl jersey and was gonna order the xxl defender as my thinking is that it would prob go on under a ls base layer and jersey.
    But it would be an educated guesstimate tbh

    Ok, possibly a stoopid question but remember there are no stoopid questions only.....

    If you're a large and you're buying a jacket (the defender in this case) shouldn't you get a large as the manufactures would have factored in that this is a jacket that is going to have a few layers under it?

    Cheers

    If it's really like the gabba, then no. The strecgabiliy of the fabric is what makes it warm. Ie it should be tight to ensure warmth

    So you get whatever size you are normally?

    And is there anywhere in Dublin that stocks Gabbas so I could try one on?

    Hi All

    the DeFends are a tight race/aero fit jersey that would accomodate a base layer and a short sleeve jersey under neath at most
    Verge try there best that if you are a large in a jersey you will be a large in a Defend or thermal jacket for instance but its not an exact sicence. remember if you have a boards jersey already and its a snug fit then go up a size for the DeFend as the normal jerseys are a sports fit and the DeFend is a race fit

    Right,
    Been chatting with the one they call 'Dav'.
    Boards HQ can be used as the pick up point again. (Cheers Dav). If you need it posted either drop me a pm or Dav.
    We will be paying into Boards account and Lucca sports will bill Boards.
    The next bit is important.

    LAST DAY FOR PAYMENT IS COB FRIDAY 17TH OCTOBER.IF YOU HAVENT PAID BY THEN YOUR ORDER WILL BE CANCELLED AS THE ORDER WILL BE PLACED ON THE MONDAY.

    ITS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU PUT YOUR BOARDS USERNAME AS THE REFERENCE WHEN PAYING SO WE KNOW WHO HAS PAID WHAT.

    Any questions?
















    Good.
    Carry on.

    Just paid, then realised Dav sent out PMs with the payment details last time. Can't imagine they've closed the account, but is Dav intending doing the same again? Alternatively I (or he) can post the account details here

    Wouldnt imagine they have changed but you wouldn't know!
    Yeah similar to last time except they wont be prepaying so whoever has paid by the Friday - that will be the order!#

    I think the details will be sent by pm. I think the accounting people were overly excited about having the details in a public forum.

    Dav is afk until the 14th. Seems even he gets holidays occasionally. Niamh is the one to ask about the bank account in his absence.

    I won't have the money until the 17th. I can do a lodgement that day - or drop it in to HQ at lunchtime (bank draft if necessary). If neither is suitable then I'll have to wait until the next order :(
