I need new motorcycle boots. The pair of TCX boots I bought are falling apart after six months. Yes, you read that right: SIX MONTHS! A letter is winging its way to TCX as I type.
I decided to head up to George White’s outlet store in Swindon, tieing in the trip with a visit (and ride-out) with a chum who lives up there. We rolled up at 5.20 on Saturday only to find they shut at 5! What a bunch of slack part-timers! 5pm on a Saturday?? I guess I should have checked the website before I left, but frankly it never even occurred to me that any large store would shut that early on a Saturday.
I can’t be arsed to ride all the way up there again – there are no decent routes to take on a bike from Ilminster to Swindon – so I guess it will be another trip to Hein Gericke tomorrow.
[UPDATE: Just had a response from TCX who are replacing my boots! What extraordinarily good customer service. Now I have complete confidence in the brand.]
