  1. If you start to experience pain when getting out of bed (before warming up) - get a Pro opinion ASAP. Palpable nodule is another strong indication. NEVER cortisone injection. Be careful of coincidental ciprofloxacin treatment.
  2. Dave, I would really like to be involved but Wednesdays I get home later - have you considered looking at an extended window of a few hours for us to do the race?
  3. You are the guy that made this happen. The Nibbles of the Hub?
  4. Is he a disciple? Didn't think so...
  5. Lots of tjoeps around here.
  6. Just like that.
  7. I have been through a huge learning curve due to the fact that I was an early adopter and my LBS had to learn with me. I have had all the possible failures that you can think of (several times in races) and STILL I would recommend it. Every time I could trace the problem and it was human error 99% of the time. Di2 all the way. Now it is the sweetest thing- think of changing while hammering out of the saddle on an uphill and having a perfect shift...

    Who remembers?

    Watching 16mm cowboy movies on the wall. When the film got stuck you could see it melting on the screen. Garage parties with mirror balls.
  9. Mate, You are overthinking this. Watts must be as high as possible! Actually it is determined by your weight and the speed you are going at (amongst many factors). Also I think is a logarythmic (or something) curve...
  10. Why are we not blaming hormones and apartheid anymore? They served us well for years.
  11. Too many C's?

    Who remembers?

    Biltong and Potroast.
  13. Well I still have Greipel - except he is being outsprinted by everybody. So really down to 5.
  14. I am feeling like Porte - deep down I know I am not good enough and now it is being exposed in public.

    Who remembers?

    Who saw Queen live? I stood right at front. Nearly got snapped by Freddie's chompers.

    Who remembers?

    Oh yes and Scope.
  17. I roughly agree with you but "band substance" is usually quite hardcore and you may end up looking like Mick Jagger!
  18. Maybe he is a Hubber? They are coming for us man...!
  19. My answer to our limited budget scenario. Only tests to licensed riders. No prize money for anybody that may win if unlicensed. Rider may not switch to licensed during a calender year (to prevent dopers switching after getting the benefit of doped training). Obviously by licensed I mean Racing License not general CSA license.
  20. I have a pair of bibs that have actually worn through where my fat thigh rubs against the saddle but the rest still looks and fits like new. Proof that despite being used hard they last if treated well (I handwash all my bibs - they cost more than most of my other clothes).
  21. Mollema will have to help me. Kwiatowski may disintegrate in the high mountains.
  22. Nature breaks will be interesting.
  23. W2W for my money. Dont know about getting in though.
  24. Aagh. This is gonna hurt. I will drop with every stage. I may DNF without any riders left.
