Been trying to get the Conti GP4000 S for a while. Cannot find them. I ordered through Totalcycling (much cheaper) but they wont airmail and the shipping worked out to 25 pounds. So, back to the hunt locally.
The suspense if frikkin killing me! Just buy your Specialized S-Works, post a pic, make us all drool with jealousy and then we can get on with our lives

Try looking at the Specialized S-Works or the Tarmac (if you are race snake) - I am biased because I ride Specialized but they are awesome bikes. www.specialized.com
Saturday somebody rides up alongside me to admire the Tubbies on my bike - was not sure if I should tell him that the wheels were in fact full carbon clinchers. They look exactly like tubbies. Schweeet.
mampara, put them on your bike and see how they spin. I tried last night (rode them on saturday) and I swear that I could have probably spun the front wheel, gone to make a cup of coffee and come back and the wheel would have still been spinning.
Sorry to tell you this but totally different races. Got a 2:43 on my last Lost City and a 3:12 on my last Argus (Old route finish with @ Greenpoint) I know that. But that is why it is called a goal. Always good to get your first sub3 regardless of which race it is in. Of course, if I rode a 3:12 in Argus (or 94.7) I would be ecstatic given that my best argus is currently 3:28 and my best 94.7 is 3:35 - ROLL ON SUMMER and early morning training rides
Looking to put new tyres onto 50mm carbon clinchers. Been suggested that I go with Contintental Grand Prix 4000S with chili compound. Any other suggestions? Who stocks the Grand Prix 4000S locally? could only find them on chainreactioncycles.
That new powermeter looks like the BUSINESS!!!! Cannot wait for them to announce price, availability etc. I think that it is going to give SRM, Ergomo and PT a run for their money (or should that be a RIDE for their money )
