Apollo Corona

If you are going to have a crap bike, you might aswell have a crap bike with a crap name

Introducing the Apollo Corona.

It's got 18 gears, but we could pretend it is 19.

A colleague brought one into work.

How unfortunate, a double dose of crap in the name. Whenever I’ve had an Apollo it’s always shown to have very poor components and has given problems. I can only hope yor work colleague has a better experience.

I had an interview at Halfords once for a job as a bike mechanic and sales assistant. The interviewer said "What we're looking for is a cycling enthusiast who's really going to push our Apollo range."

I can't remember how I replied but it was something along the lines of ...but they're sh!t. I didn't get the job.

There is a brand of kids' bikes called Virus.

(Models don't include the Herpes, with Simplex gears, but they should)

I would rather walk to work. It would probably be quicker.

Be warned that this assessment of said “bike” contains potty mouth:

I can feel the weight of that from here.

It's about time Campag dumped the Ergopower name and called it Nuovo Super Usabilità.

On an unrelated matter, the new Apollo Harold Shipman looks sure to be a big seller.
