Harmonics. By gripping the top tube with your knees you dampen the resonance through the body (bike and rider) and break the perfect wave which has been set up and increases in amplitude, ie a massive wobble.

Mount plate on rear of trailer or trailer roof rack. I would do the latter.

You are just getting old and lazy. For serious advice refer to above.

I would highly recommend going with one of the stock black forks if the colour is that important to you. Even the best spray or powder coat job is nowhere near a factory coat and with the effort you are putting into your build will wear badly and annoy you.

Just spent 200 squid including £10 shipping and it was only Royal Mail. Tracking says it arrived in Jozi Tuesday. Processed by Merlin last Monday. Not too bad but prob should have spent extra on courier. Will post updste when it arrives.

If you cant afford a new bike you will find upgrading your fork not a very economical option either. You will undoubtedly find it cheaper or similar to get a correct sized frame and work on your posture/strength and get set up properly.

There is nothing as satisfying as having put mud tyres and mud guards on your bike when all around you are battling through the bog

Is the Ibis Tranny able to split the rear triangle?

Livestrong is a very American thing. My clinic is totally void of any reference to LA as are the other clinics I have visited for opinions. Not saying that people wouldn't know who he is but he's not as big a deal as it might be made out to be. His story is inspirational, but not exceptional.

Damn, what brakes is he running?

If you have a removable core take it out to seat.

Why did you move your cleats? 13mms is a long way and if it's not on a stable part of the shoe your setup might be wrong.

Understandable. That money doesnt go a long way seeing how much all this costs. Session 5 of 12 started today. Tough, tough day. Been battling a chest infection, back spasm and the hayfever (so amazing listening to rain tonight). After no 6 we'll do scans and bloods to see if this muti is working. I have noticed a change in the chemo rooms over the past 3 years. The vibe is less morbid and there seems to be a chattiness. For want of a better description, some partners seem to brag about their patient's condition. I stick to myself and exchange basics and pleasantries but dont do the tea party thing. I wonder if the Livestrong exposure has made this a more comfortable topic. As well as the deaths of some high profile sport starts and celebrities: Fignon, Seve, Farah, Yauch, Jobs, Swayze, Hopper! The list goes on and many more living with it and raising awareness. Wonder if Apple will do something?

There is a bike lane at the East end of Rabie Rd. Wonder what the history behind that is.

Eventually they will be exactly like Times.

Great piece which again shows how Lance polarises people's attitudes towards him based on their experiences of him, his foundation or armchair fanaticism. Through all my experiences I have yet to experience this or any direct interaction/support from Livestrong. I wonder if we are directly getting benefits through the drug companies?

If the evidence is there it will be a US Postal Team liability as I'm sure the rot doesn't stop at LA.

PS. Appreciate the article by the way. Not knocking your posting it. Not at all. Not a fan of LA's supposed persona. I do think though that the tall trees catch the wind and so easy for all the haters to bash away now. Not a hater either. Have met sports stars and celebrities who were supposed to be ales and turned out to be nice blokes. I personally just don't know.

I hope it comes out anyway. Whether uci require it to strip his wins or whatever. Have just had a very strange thought. Imagine the conspiracy goes even further back that LA didnt actually have cancer and it was staged to generate a massive pr machine ultimately doping to win the TdF and build his empire.
