anyone bidding ?, think i'd rather have those htc bikes on the adverts

ROK ON

If I an obscene amount of cash, I would buy the Hirst butterfly bike. I'd fit a triple on it, plus spds.

Then I would come out on boards spins and p1ss ye all off by wearing black socks (just like Lance).

I would also buy the Sheppard Fairey bike as a winter trainer.

I think they are estimating $100k+ for eack bike. Of course if you can afford one, I am sure you will not be too bothered about the import duty and VAT (you could, of course, ride it through the mud and rain in Central Park to make it a bit grubby before bringing it over to Ireland, claiming it's the road bike you had in the bike box on the flight out to NY:))

Makes no difference whatsoever, you still have to pay VAT and duty.

Hirst is a muppet. There, I said it.

Very disappointed to see that **** Bono gets a mention in the catalogue; he apparently got Hirst on board. Is there nothing that little ****er hasn't got his hand in?

Noooo! :mad: Why did you go do dat?

What a hairy-knuckled an opportunist that midget is. He must have a crack-team of personnel seeking out bandwagons causes which he can jump onto.

On Lance pics, this is from his Twitter:

Indeed, he has a complete blindspot when it comes to Lanceyboy, but then with yesterday's Felt interview the shark jump is irreversible.
