Default Wheres my prize?

God dam Visor down.

Anyone remember my silly incident leaving my bike in gear? Well as im happy to laugh at myself, I posted it on Confessions on the VD website forum.

Then Scoobs let me know it was in VD Magazine? I thought he meant the forum, but went to buy a copy of VD anyway to have a look. Sure enough, i've got the main confessions story. "Not bad" I thought to myself, but when I carried on reading it says £10 for each printed. Even better, that'll go towards a tinted visor for my new skid lid.

So I go back on the forum, and check the post out again. It says on teh forum I can win a back protector as well. Ace, either a new back protector, or £10, i'd be happy with either.

So I message the admin dude, last thursday, and he still hasn't replied yet. So what do I do?

They printed the story (forum sure enough, but wasn't aware it might make the mag), but aint coughing up yet.

Where first? Another message to the admin dude on the forum, or get in contact with VD editor direct?

Don't take this lying down!

Firebomb their offices - that should focus their attention on your tenner.

Just politely inform them you will be charging them interest on your £10
