Large MTB shop with decent range of clothes in Cornwall / Thames Valley?

[Tim1023]

Fed up of having to rely on online shops and reviews - the only choice I have here in pancake-flat Hamburg - I'm hoping to stock up on some clothing when I visit the UK in July.
I'll be heading to Reading first, then down to Cornwall for a couple of weeks.
Does anybody have any recommendations for shops with a decent range of gear for the portly mountainbiker?

I’m Cornwall, near Newquay, there is Clive Mitchel Cycles and Amped E-Motion Cycles.
Over Plymouth way you have Certini Bikes.

There's Evans Cycles and AW Cycles,, might be worth a shot. Specialized Concept Store in Newbury (if you have a car) - no idea on stock sorry. As for larger sizes, good luck and prey you fit the various design styles/sizings by trying stuff on (I can't find a jacket yet to fit my shoulders/chest, trousers are fine though)

Call in advance maybe if you can find a number (or email)?

There's a few places, try web searching for "mtb shop reading uk" for example.

Excellent - thank you for the tips guys!
Just had a look at the in-store photos for those in Google maps. Certini looks very good. Also Evans in Bracknell looks like it has more to offer than the branch in Reading that I've been to before (which was actually the place when my jaw dropped to match the first dropper post I'd ever seen!)
