Did you actually try and reserve the bikes?
Or do you mean web exclusive bikes?

I was thinking of joining this scheme,but since my mailcentre is about to close and Royal Mail look likely to offer me my job 45 miles away i dont think ill bother now...Good luck to all who have the privilege to reap the benefits of what is quite a good scheme..

Re: Cycle 2 work scheme
The price in halfords for the boardman comp is now £499. Does that mean we could get it for £399 with the £100 discount?
Also, does anyone know how long the LOC is valid for?

Re: Cycle 2 work scheme
I just collected my Boardman today and got it for 360 by reserving online and getting that 40 quid off for spending over 400 quid, and by taking in that lovely 100 quid off voucher. I now have a tasty Boarman and 140 quid worth of tatbanner18 wrote:The price in halfords for the boardman comp is now £499. Does that mean we could get it for £399 with the £100 discount?

Re: Cycle 2 work scheme
If you mean the web offer in conjunction with the 100 quid off voucher, then yes. I phoned Halfords before I went down, and the first guy I spoke to said 'no, you can't do that, but I'm not sure', then he put me on to the manager to check, and the manager said yes. But I didn't want to push my luck by seeing if I could use the 50 quid off voucher as well.banner18 wrote:can you use the two offers in conjunction though?

Re: Cycle 2 work scheme
Just had my first ride on the Boardman to acclimbatise to riding in the dark. Lovely fast bike, but I almost came a cropper when some dozy bitch opened her car door just as I was going past.
