Anyone noticed that TND is moving up again nicely.
I hear Bratz Dolls are going to make a big impact this Christmas
and with manufacturing moving to the far east and the cost reductions that go with it Im hoping for great things. (shame about uk manufacturing but I guess we are just too dam expensive).

Yes thay are!
Bike's - ever investigated the purchase price of mountain bikes these days?
Rotten Summer? Mountain bikers dont care about the weather!
Golf? Ryder Cup is this week.
Come on Kev put your thinking head on.
The major change to this business is sourcing from the far east.
Better late than never I say.
Take a closer look at the accounts and the last statement.
The bulk of profit comes in the second half and I'm hoping for a bumper Christmas.

You are probably right - but I'm not convinced. Do serious mountain bikers buy Tandem products? What are their brands these days? Can't find a website for them but presumably they still have Dawes and Falcon but not fashionable with the serious guys. And I think some of the shine has gone from the Christmas bike market, when margins were always very thin, anyway. Maybe Bratz will take up some of that slack.
