I will be using my MTB to do the Argus this year. It has a tubeless conversion with Maxxis Larsn MIMO tyres. I was thinking of installing slicks for the race, and my question is: Should ( can) I convert the slick tyres to tubeless ? or should I revert to tyre/tubes

Had the same problem. Epic bike shop in Plumstead has the rivnut tool to fix it.

I was getting frustrated at their continued copying of articles from their overseas editions and did not renew my subscription. seems it was a good idea!

The guy worked for my neighbour. Unfortunately he didnt make it.

I have also ordered from both and had no problems, infact had a warranty claim via total cycling that they sorted out with the supplier apart from the wait for the repalcement.

Riders' names mentioned in German doping report By Susan Westemyer The interim report released by the Freiburg University Clinic on Thursday not only said that two additional doctors were involved in organized doping at Team Telekom/T-Mobile Team, but also indicated that the doping continued through 2006. And the report named the names of riders who may have been involved. The biggest rider name at the team was Jan Ullrich, and although his name is more frequently mentioned in connection with Dr. Eufemiano Fuentes, it popped up here, too. The Chairman of the independent investigatory commission, Hans Joachim Sch?fer, said that Ullrich was "probably" involved with doping at the clinic, finding "numerous indications, but no proof." One of those "indications" is a patient file titled "Maier, Ullrich, born on Dec. 2, 1937." Jan Ullrich's birthday is Dec. 2, 1973. Another big name mentioned was Andreas Kl?den, who now rides for Team Astana. According to the report, a bill was sent on March 9, 2000, for a delivery of medication to Bettina Jurkat, now Kl?den's wife. The package was sent by express delivery and Sch?fer said that he believed it contained EPO, according to the AP. An additional package of medications was noted on a March 16, 2000, bill to "BHR Radhaus / F?r J?rg", in Ansbach. "BHR Radhaus" is a bike shop in Ansbach, Germany, the home of J?rg Jaksche. The report also addressed the question of who may have gone to the Clinic during the Tour de France 2006 for blood transfusions. Patrik Sinkewitz has claimed that he went alone, but other sources have claimed that up to five other team-mates may have gone as well. The report assumes that at least two other riders were involved. While Sinkewitz has repeatedly claimed that there was no other rider in his car, Sch?fer said, "There is evidence that there was another car." In addition, the report said that Erik Zabel started a three-week EPO treatment during the Tour de Suisse 1996. While this was first understood to be a doping action in addition to that which he has already confessed, Sch?fer later confirmed that this was the incident to which Zabel had referred

Agree with WH, Have tried most makes of running shoes and the Nike range seems to fit my feet the best. I have also found that some salesmen have a fixation about a brand and will try to convince one to buy their suggested shoe even though I have been running injury free in my nikes. Like Thug says go to a specialist running shop. Take your trainers with so the salesman can get an idea of the wear pattern and try a number of pairs on. remember the brightest ones may not be best for you

Windbreaker, that is probably why Big H won the wooden spoon award 2006

the fizik Arione normally is about 250 g although they avertise 230g http://weightweenies.starbike.com/listings/components.php?type=saddles mine weighs 250 g as well. Think it might be better to have a comfortable saddle than a light one that is not so comfortable.

Barloworld riders have started todays stage. Thomas and Hunter on the course at the moment.
