  1. That pic is from 2008. The weather was much nicer this year. Almost as good as Gauteng!
  2. ...and I thought this was another thread about Andre Agassi!!! BMCfan, I think you need a new frame. QUICK before the other baby comes!
  3. Well, good thing you didn't ride because the pics are great! Nice to see fatty and Shortlegs back at Killarney. The shots capture a lot of pain. Well done. Makes me wish I could be there.
  4. Why aren't you riding? Getting lazy?
  5. You can drink at work?! Wow, I have to hide my brandy in the bottom drawer. Do you serve burgers at the bar?
  6. You bstrd! I was going to come with some whitty reply about prefering sesame seed to poopy seed on mine, now you've gone and ruined it!!!
  7. With those legs it looks like a scene from Terminator. Glad to see he's human under the skin!
  8. Yes, it is meant to be open! I just have be carful when I lift the bike upright after a rainy session, because water pours out of the headset! All that extra weight....

    Ethics

    Better not tell Cavendish about that. He's a MAJOR wheelsucker!!!
  10. Yes, they do! I have even started doing it myself because I slavishly follow everything the pro's do. I'm planning to start winning like they do too, but that plan is not going so well.
  11. Erhem' date=' Summer is starting in the southern hemisphere Hope you have a nice thick jacket WH! [/quote'] Bugger... Yes nice jackets, and booties, and fleece lined pants and skullcap and windproof gloves and IDT and dogged determination....
  12. Nice bike! It needs some lights though...
  13. That's what the marketing guys would like you to think! Riding one of these says "I've got money", it says nothing about skill, style, passion or general likeability. Over here in Holland these bikes are generally seen as midlife crises bikes!
  14. My racing bike has 10-speed and I swop my wheels (with powertap) between bikes so everytime I have to change the freaking cluster from 9 to 10-speed when swopping wheels! Plus my 9-speed shifters are rattling like hell and can't be repaired, so perfect reason to change to 10-speed Willehond2009-10-20 08:18:55
  15. Henri, I just found this great doc: http://www.wheelworks.co.nz/articles/Upgrading_Shimano_9_Speed_to_Shimano_10_Speed.pdf Answers all the questions!
  16. Thanks moderrig!!!
  17. I want to upgrade my training bike from 9-speed to 10-speed. Trying to do it cheaply (it's for training!), but the 10-speed 105 derailleur looks just like the 9-speed one. Plus the replacement part states that it is 9 AND 10 speed compatible. My question is, do I need to change the derailleur or can I just get new 10-speed STI shifters and use the old RD?Willehond2009-10-20 06:49:52
  18. Geez, a bit of marketing and Burry hobnobbing it with a Schelcky and you guys think it's a waste! Come on, it's post-season fun stuff. Chill
  19. WHAT?! NO photo of the winner???? Shocking! Come on Ronelle, where is it? (PS Stunning pics. Ek is skoon homesick)
  20. Sometimes you really should just go and ride your bike
  21. You don't need to be Einstein to figure this one out...
