  1. Those Marvel's were tempting and look even better on the bike. Are the rims tubeless ready.?
  2. Agreed bj horn. A 2017 ride would be great, but maybe best left for Monday morning.
  3. Don't have to be a Mavic fan to like those.!
  4. The Ti frame advertised in the classifieds recently caught my eye. Looked like a good deal except I'm off the bike currently and not sure about returning. Somebody else is enjoying it now.!
  5. Since when do people offer more than advertised price.? Probably a case of good interest received in goods and now wanting to re-evaluate advertised price. Normally those goods are removed only to reappear at inflated price. Unfortunately anything goes in the classifieds. You can only choose how you wish to deal with these situations.
  6. Training tools/aids (when used properly) open the door to quality training vs quantity training.
  7. Tough to say anything bad once you've invested so much in the piece of equipment. I do think there's enough evidence though to justify the use of powermeters. But like any training tool, it's only effective when used properly. Will it make you win races - no, probably not if you weren't good enough to win to start.
  8. Nice report and introduction to the area/event hayleyearth. Seems cold and wind could present quite a challenge.
  9. Anybody know where Kevin of BMC finds himself nowadays.?
  10. Lots making the switch to bigger volume tyres - not too many at 28c just yet. Aside from the brake calipers, one needs to be sure that the frame can accommodate it too. I can't see 28's fitting my Tarmac SL4.
  11. Really.! Out of all you could've chosen. Just kidding - well done doringdraad
  12. Real pity about the withdrawal - this was really the race to watch.!
  13. Will be good to have a competitive women's race rather than one team dominating things.
  14. I chose to walk by the stand very quickly and avoid temptation.
  15. 'Mine Shaft' @ 20% sounds interesting. I wonder what the distance of the climb is.?
  16. Compensating for those who disregard their PM notifications perhaps/or just don't know about the facility.?
  17. Seems resurrecting this thread has stirred up some emotion. "Comforting" to know that one is not alone in this struggle. LOL
  18. Resurrecting an oldie here I know, but just been having a run of poor deals. Committed to buying, arranged for collection (cash deal), only to hear that item has been sold to somebody else when wanting to collect. WTF.! Small vent to realease some frustration ...
