Today FM !
A while back I came up with a few Radio Ray blog entries which were parodies of the Gift grub Radio Roy sketches on today fm . Well this Sunday I get to do it for real as a guest on The Sunday Business show between 10.30 and 11.30 am .
We also got a good mention in last Thursdays Irish Independant Digital Ireland supplement , with a picture for my three year old to draw a beard on which should keep me from actually growing one any time soon .

Wow, I’ve never been to a blog which features almost everything about cycling. O.O This is quite amazing!

Happened to spot the article in the Indo and then heard yesterdays piece on Today FM – interesting to see how you folks are benefiting from web 2.0. You never did answer the question as to why the Italian would buy a bike off you for 3k though… Keep up the good work, Shane

Hi Shane ,
The cycling market is very compeditive in Ireland and thus prices here are sometimes less than elsewhere . It just happened that the combination of frame and components that this particular customer was looking for worked out a little cheaper from us than the price that he was getting in Italy . We did not charge him any shipping charges and also advised him as to the best combination to suit his budget .
He had come across our site through the blog about ‘ Sean Kelly – the big big movie ‘ and is a big fan of Seans .
I hope that this answers the question , yesterday live on air I was caught on the hop as it was a pretty tough interview .
Thanks for taking the time to comment ,

Thanks for the informative reply Barry. I thought you handled the interview well by the way – I didn’t realise it was live as sometimes they pre-record those radio segments.
All the best,
Shane

That was a lovely gentle interview I did, Barry. Well done and I hope the response was good, Conall
p.s. to Shane – we try not to do any pre-records as it takes away from the ‘feel’ of the show. Thanks for listening.

Thanks Conall ,
I don’t know if gentle would be how I would describe it but I must admit that I did enjoy the whole experience .
There has been a very positive response and a lot of extra traffic to the site , so I guess blogging is good for business even in roundabout ways .
It was nice to meet you yesterday and hopefully our paths may cross again sometime .
