You get one new free upgrade per year, thats whats happened with me for the past 2 years. @Udxcob, yes, I don't see why I should pay to start later, I'll keep my number until July thanks. But others may disagree.
I think that the crank PM's also show cadence in most cases. But if you have a garmin/polar head unit and cadence sensor then it overrides the cadence sensor on the PM and uses the one you've got on already.
So... Seeing as Contador has been banned, Saxobank have lost all of the points that he gained during the time period in question. They now have to go to a commision to see if they still qualify as a Worldtour team without Contadors 68% of the teams points.

Unfortunately it was misplaced at the office of the guy whose bringing it back and he missed it in Jan, so it's getting to SA on the 25th/26th Feb, will get it fitted ASAP and then do some testing on the IDT with both of them. So keen!
At least you finished! I was seriously considering dropping out after 25km when I got dropped, and I didn't even crash. Big ups to determination! I'm also happy I carried on, beat my dad my 8mins, a racing master who's son is in my lift club by 6mins, and my old sportsmaster by 11!
If you have a worn chain then you lose power, it won't affect the device, but the reading you will get on a crank pm and a hub pm with a worn chain will differ.
I agree, had a very close call when some guy just stopped in the middle of the road. I had to brake in about 2m and when I did my back brake locked and I skidded sideways for a seconds, managed to stay upright though. Was an awesome ride, really enjoyed it, especially the finishing climbs.
So, I just looked at the people who rode last year and there are lots of very notable names... Maybe they'll be back this year? Also see that the $ group will be quite big this year, I'm no 136, anybody in $ after that?
