eish..

whahaahaha..

anyone have an opinion? thanks..

damn... i've been snoozing... missing the thread.. i listen to my ipod when i train alone, but i dont turn the volume up too high which allows me to hear the traffic. GreyOwl - i second you on Anriette, she's a belter!

i hunted for those last week as well.. could not find any.. managed to find "clear skins" stickers at cajees and they seem to work quite well.

it happens everywhere.. people just throw their gel/bar wrappers along the roadside.. its terrible.. seriously.. that additional 1g is not going to slow you down that much.. BMC.. i doubt a bio-degradable banana peel is the same thing!

hahaha... LOL.. not talking about morning lab rides.. trust me.. i feel you.. was out for a gentle spinn on saturday at 09:00..

come one guys... a smile or nod of the head costs you nothing neither does acknowledging someone when they greet you. there is no better feeling than enjoying the fresh morning air on your carbon stallion.. no need to be grumpy, especially not if you are wearing the same club kit i am!!!

i heard that only the '07 team frames were breaking, not the rc7000..

the ea90 slx are supposed to be the replacement for the acesent II, they use new hub technology

thanks for the heads-up.. glad to managed to "judo chop" their asses

were you wearing it when it went through the windscreen?

I got a Selle Italia 120g, love it !

hey rude.. sorry to hear about this.. never fear.. not all us roadies are miserable.. only a few that dont even bother greeting fellow roadies. hope you are able to get your bike sorted.

I'll give you a guess as to which way that debate will go..

nice work..

nice..

nice..

i am always scared of using my WT chip.. worried it wont register or something stupid.. feel slightly more confident with championchip.

sounds like the best plan..

dude.. besides the choice of bike.. well done on getting her to do it at all.. i cant think of anything my other half would rather NOT do than cycle! seriously though.. maybe the best is for her to be given both options, pros & cons and let her decide. if i was in your position, i would consider the hybrid as the first option, and road bike as second option. good luck!

putting my helmet on before getting on my bike is second nature, like wearing underwear or drinking coffee in the morning.. having said that, i am amazed at how often i see guys training without helmets, esp. when we ride on the east rand (no offense to east randers)

ouch.. thats harsh..

i used to use a CS200 (the 300 - 600 were not out when i bought it) and i loved it, gave me all the info i needed. upgraded to a S725X and i love it even more, the main reason for the upgrade i guess was for the power meter functionality that the CS200 does not have. i guess the question to ask yourself is, what do i need? if you need heart rate, speed and cadence, the CS300 or even CS200 will be a good buy. if you need altitude, temp etc.. you may need a more expensive model. wrt cycling only or watch type, i guess thats a personal preference, i dont ever wear my 725 as a watch, maybe only when i drive to my morning rides, and that is only because i dont like leaving it on my bike when the bike is on the caddy!
