  1. Wear the camelbak on your stomach, Frank Schleck did it and nearly got DQ'ed because it worked so much better.
  2. Had to get up at 4:00, but it was nice not having to make way for the Elites and Subvets...
  3. I know that they(we) ride for position, was just saying that because of an earlier comment re their times.
  4. Exactly! The F and H times were both faster than the stars. PPA need to wittle the group down to a more select bunch, then the pace will really go up.
  5. Probably about 300 including the timing chipless. But I also hate big groups, after riding U14 league last year which had about 20 people and then doing the die burger which had much bigger groups I just stayed at the back of the group and payed the price by being dropped when the wind came up. The groups shouldn't exceed more than 50people... my view.
  6. Came 5th in U16, happy with that...

  8. still not up
  9. I'm gonna go to sleep, been up since 4. Hope the results are up tomorrow am.
  10. Ya, But I saw at least 8 thinkbike marshals at the start. 1 for u16's (back at start of vets, masters and ladies.) 1 for u14's vets, masters, ladies. Subvets, elites and junior men stars. any more? Unless they gave preference to soup groups then they should have had enough.
  11. It's outrageous not to have a thinkbike marshall with you. Did you at least have a vehicle? U16's had 3 cars and a thinkbike marshall, and it's entirely necessary because of the stunts some of us try to pull, but our bunch is only 25, and yours is 80odd I think? I think a firmer stance has to be taken on white lines. Hope the riders recovers well
  12. Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Albert Einstein This theory applies to checking and re-checking the racetec website in the hope of results being loaded.

    6 needed from the last over. Still in with a chance but very slim.
  17. Wasn't it A-C and D-E?
  18. Another thread about this, "Cape Cobra accident" i think. When I did the Journey 4 sight, I started with the B bunch, it was hellishly windy and they ended up on the white line and sometimes even halfway in the oncoming lane. Cyclists need to be more careful, I mean, riding in the oncoming lane?! Without any road closure! Of course if there is a crash then it can't be helped if you skid into the other lane...
  19. Only available in March 2012, so it will only be on bikes from then, so don't go and buy a sram red bike now! It will probably be similar to the 2011 price, maybe a little bit more, but I assume they'll want to remain the cheapest lightest road groupset.
  20. I think this is because your saddle bolts are not tightened properly and so when you shift backwards it points up. When you are not riding can you tilt the saddle up and down?

    GT or Silverback

    Silverback, you wont be able to lose 340g for R310 at any other point.
  22. When you get caught out, does it make you faster?
  23. what's the brilliant blend team leader all about?
  24. Check that beast of a crank http://www.bikerumor.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/New-2012-SRAM-Red-component-group-teaser1.jpg
