As an accountant the key takeaways are: 1. Trek UK was holding far too much stock meaning they had to heavily discount their range. Management however seem to acknowledge this. 2. It's not all doom and gloom. Total revenue was up 9% on 23. 3. Cash generation was positive. @cargobikeben.bsky.social

The moan always was you can't see cyclists, and they were too slow. Now their lights are too bright and they're too fast - you can't win!

They would say they need to reunvest their profits in capex. Key is to fact check that statement vs divs paid to shareholders

So if he's not certain on anything, how come Farage is so certain that carbon emissions don't cause climate change? I mean hang it, I don't know, you don't know....jeez!

I think that's one of the great deceptions of e bike marketing - ie heavier equals better workout. All that will happen is that you will go slower and your HR will drop. Ergo less power ergo less effective workout. Better off buying lightweight aero bike with light wheels for climbing.
