NORMAL SERVICE TO RESUME SOON



The HOP compound has been contaminated with a nasty virus ( started by The Pistette ) that we're all just getting over now. Fortunately we got Jed's ludicrously complex London Calling tees finished in time and surprised even ourselves with the tiny detail's we managed to include. Unfortunately The Pistette was the only one healthy enough to go to any of the events but she did manage to get second girl in the Saturday Tour De Ville Al**ycat. The story is that she could've got first place, prize: a Condor f&f but because she spilled mushroom soup* in her bag she decided to go for second prize: a Bagaboo bag. After this and her first place in the Millportpoloco time trial we may have to re-think our 'no winning anything' clause we impose on all our teamriders ( news Joe won't be happy about ) and it may accelerate our long talked about plans for the 'SOHO PIGEONS' courier racing team.

In the mean time there will be another break from posting until after the first week in Sept. don't worry we're not losing interest we're just doing a mixture of R&D and R&R. When we return we'll be doing a lot of new HOP products and I think we'll finally be doing some Mail Order again, full details will follow.


*who races with a carton of soup in their bag?
