Quelle Surprise...
Yup folks, lockdown is back. Viral cases are up. Brexit’s
looming. America’s on the brink of a new president (as I write this) and it’s
damn cold in the UK. However, it’s worth you knowing that we’re still trading
and have just replenished most key lines of stock (or have them fully
replenished by mid November). This means that, as before, it’s business as
usual and we’re certainly shipping out through all the usual channels. This
time though, people aren’t so much panic-buying 300 loo rol

Taking Stock...
I was recently speaking to two friends separately, both of which have been riding since the early to mid nineties. They had ridden on and off (far more off than on) and both owned a good few bikes over that period. Within the last, say six months, both of them had quite nasty accidents and had decided to give up riding, based on the reasoning that although they were doing nothing wrong, were not riding aggressively, or impatiently and were sticking to the Law, they had someone pull out from a ju

Why hello there...
As I write this, the C-word is now becoming less of a
worldwide issue, as it starts to subside (this reminds me of the time I took
someone out on a date and said “I never use the c-word in front of a girl”, to

Morning Y’all
OK, so we’re a few weeks into the madness now and I, along with you all, I’m sure, want it to end. Yes, the Bikeshed show has been cancelled. Big shame for them and us, as we were exhibiting there too, but not to worry, as there’s light at the end of the tunnel now and we’ve got plenty to be getting on with.As for Alchemy Parts and the products we’re selling, it’s still business as usual. We’re still in every day and still distributing, and Royal Mail are still collecting from us as normal. By a
