    The Classics

    Volta Ciclista Catalunya on all week to warm you up.
  2. Expect some increase in traffic as there has been some protests again near Sir Lowry village possibly redirecting traffic along the coast.
  3. What would you choose gummi? A Baum Correto frameset is nearly 10000 AUD $, slightly more than the De Rosa. Granted the Baum us custom built, but then again the De Rosa will surely increase in value over time. As opposed to the Baum.
  4. Was really hoping it was going to be a new frame material.
  5. @M10, as a guide pre 2014 brake calipers, cassettes, chains, cranksets are compatible with 2015 -2018 groupsets. Only deraileurs and ergolevers are not compatible across the years.
  6. As much as a Record 10spd is the best groupset ever it would be out of place on a C60. At minimum a C60 needs a Record 11spd groupset. The pre 2015 groupspets are cheaper but new parts are scarce in terms of deraileurs and ergolevers.
  7. Stunning. Just remember we ride the same size frame ????

  9. I have these. Bought in 2016 and my rear light refuses to charge recently. Great lights lbut everything probably breaks. Front light is still working and charging. I have just ordered the new Smart drive Pro as a rear light.
  10. Park at VNA waterfront at the lookout point. Its in walking distance from finish and a short ride to start.
  11. The taxi rank on the station deck is under construction and should be nearing completion. The Grand Parade is being used as a taxi rank.
  12. You could possibly run a 10spd crankset with yr 9spd but you would need a 10spd chain as well.
  13. Elite Direto, decent specs, 0.5 - 1% accuracy. Mine has been faultless so far. Syncs well with devices. Im running Sufferfest via Iphone streaming to an Apple tv. Using a Wahoo bluetooth heart rate belt to transmit to my cell. Have trialled Zwift which synced well with Apple tv.
  14. Interms of seeding, it really seems like dark magic. My Dido Hillclimb in 2017 was used for my seeding. My last 2 events was SCT 2019 and CTCT 2018. Beta for Dido was more than 2 with a penalty of 17 (owing to time) and SCT was 0.9 with penalty of 5. My guess is that race office is looking more at your best result or capability so as to push you up in groups as opposed dropping you to the lower groups because of lack of event participation. This could work both ways where some people are fit enough for their groups but have'nt done any events recently, alternatively you are unfit and seeded in a fast group due to older results. I was expecting a lower group because of SCT time with a mechanical but Im more than happy with seeded group.
  15. Try soaking them in a water with a few aspirins added. Another trick is using bicarbonate of soda added to your washing powder.
  16. January done. Only 331 to go. Need to get a wearable device with wrist hr to make things easier when my day is busy. I smeaked in an IDT session just before midnight on Friday. That was cutting it extremely close.
