In a word C**P. Halfords for any serious cyclist is a waste of time, so my advice is, if you are a 'fair weather cyclist' and only need a set of flimsy tyres or a puncture repair kit - then fine, go in. If you require some nice trick bits, avoid it.

Yeah, I know what you're thinking...Weasel lives in Berlin, but I am a subscriber to Mountain biking UK (a decent mag until it got taken over by 5 year olds), and it has Halfords brochures regulary. So I get to see their overpriced range of rubbish from afar. I used to live in the UK anyway, so I got to see it firsthand. I had to go somewhere whilst shopping with 'her indoors'! There is only so many womens shoe shops you can go in before you have a mental meltdown.

I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Rich, what do you think?
