I past a tandem on a hill... Heard the guy say: "oh no, oh no" The just heard a mighty clunk and crash and shattering!" think the lady took a hard hit" But didn't see any crashes. (happy to report)

Nice bike!

:thumbup:

Love these pic's!!! Will try to take one of my own, this weekend! *hope I stay off the tarmac*

Hey Dude!!! I just wanted to ask you why you were thinking of doing this??? What do you want to achieve?

a 28 on a 53 is like a Monopoly "get out of Jail free" card But on a bigger "Front" chainring, it's like Shell Helix on a Ferrari

That was well put! That's the beginning and end of all the clever things to say on this thread

Did you get stung?

I sincerely hope you do have a good ride! You are putting in a fair bit of effort, that should be rewarded. I also respect that you aren't quitting and respect that you've chatted to a Doc and taken the time to thrash out ideas on this forum. Keep us posted!

Go to timing chip companies' website, punch in your id number Which chip do you have?

Slicks & rain = faster... all you have to do is stay upright

So my take: Parking was a mess! I am glad I went on the bike. No signage as to where to go to once you are in SCC. So go to floor below ground level. Number collection was a breeze. (I thought the goodie bag was fuller than previous years) 32GI has a superb stand! Great Addidas Sunglasses stand! Quite a lot of indoor trainer equipment, Lot's of kit(bibs& tops): Here a bib, there a bib, everywhere a frikken bib and top. Kit, kit, kit everywhere, not too many special prices though. Beautiful MTN bikes all over. Pinnarello (can never remember how to spell that) had a fantastic stand. It's gets a little crowded at the exit, plenty of give aways at that point. So if you want to buy your biltong, make sure you have your money ready and have your bag open.

Oakley was there again, swapping out madly!

Awesome pics!

Okay, Okay... am I the only one who can't understand why this post is going on and on and on...

Thanks!

Cant see any bikes

Any new info?

Thanks for the input ppl! I decided to just go with one wheel & I sold the 11-23

Hahaha, I don't like leaving my bicycle unattended. (dont have a bike lock + there's the saddle bag, helmut etc)

Good call on the Motorbike parking, I'll do the same

so you are a hosepipe kind of guy? right

Trekker, I am all for reporting feedback to VA. Would you like to share the tel number of the person you spoke to? I have already given feedback to our local gym (I dont want to shout and scream, but perhaps they may realise the error of their ways if they get a few members calling.)

That is a very pretty saddle
