  1. Hello, Yes I am. My other bikes are Sram Rival and Sram 11speed Force which are noticeably less noisy
  2. Thanks for the info! I thought I was going nuts, and my LBS insisted it was the type of lube I was using, which is the same I use for all my road bikes, so that theory didn't make sense. Much Appreciated.
  3. I have to agree with you, running Sram on both road bikes and was recently persuaded to change to KMC, sounded like a sack of spanners, I also ride at 4 am so it's super quiet so was even more noticeable. Eventually went back to Sram chain. Saying that though, I recently bought a Venge with Sram Red and was astounded at how noisy the Red cassette is, reading loads of reviews that suggest changing to a KMCX10Sl chain, which judging how noisy the last KMC chain was is something I'm rather loathe to do
  4. I'm probably way off the mark here but Sagan seems to have lost his passion in his quest for the Green Jersey. Doesn't have the same fire that we've always experienced watching. Whatever it is , I hope he gets it back
  5. Hi guys, any suggestions on any sites streaming the Tour ? I truly can’t see myself listening to Mcrossen for the next three weeks. Right now the next 3 hours is a stretch.
  6. I was telling my wife about your Cycle Tour Bmx exploits and now I read this. You're an amazingly good person, with a very good perspective on life
  7. Maybe so but it suits riders that wanted to compete in both but wanted fresher legs
  8. Thanks but no thanks. R12k for a team entry??? I suppose on the bright side it gives David a reason to get face time on tv again to explain the increase.
  9. Well written and informative.
  10. No, I'm not riding for free coffee's. I'm not going to ride every morning at 4 am for a free beverage. However if you allocate a certain amount and then backtrack I think one is more than entitled to question why. Apologies if this is another moan.
  11. That was the response I received from Discovery via Twitter this morning. So who knows where that info came from
  12. I frankly am not impressed with Vitality. I was getting 3000 points per ride which was great. No problems getting points etc. Then came the weekend and nothing was allocated. After contacting them via Twitter I was told that it would be resolved, which it subsequently hasn't. Went for a 2.20hr ride this morning and only got 600 points. I've been told that unless you use heart rate monitor ( I don't) you will only get 600 points. I have Strava and Garmin Connect as a feed but it seems unless I have a chest strap the goal post's have been moved from last week. As for Myles, this man deserves a medal for all the constant, useful advice he's given.
  13. To what ? Fight Club ? Judging by the arguments it might be rather apt? Congratulations though
