Why would you raise your kid to be in a position to be influenced by anyone without them talking to you about it?

99% of peds, administered under proper supervision have almost zero side effects. To suggest criminal sanction is laughable.

I forgot how funny you okes can be.

I'd go 27.5 wheel size in a large frame size at that height. 29ers will be too big for you. Grow another 10cm before you look at one.

Well, you can. is your head that far in the sand that you think this young (admittedly brilliant athlete) is the only one doped to the gills at WO22?

Locally we call them team moneycomb.

Ya. I've only ever worried about the route for things like SA champs and stage races, and then it was only because I needed to know where's what for team duties, not cause I was worried about going the wrong way. For a funride, I'd also have blindly followed the lead vehicle.

So, regardless of the position of that chevron board, how come every other rider knew which way to turn? Isn't the onus on the rider still to familiarise themselves with the route?

Yeah, that wasn't a particularly dangerous bit of road anyway. Unless you're a wrapped up in cotton wool type who drives alone in their car wearing a covid mask, I guess then the entire world is a horribly dangerous place.

Why can't bikes/frames simply be tested according to some international standard like Euro NCAP for cars? Let them be as light as you want, as long as they meet the required standard? Would make a lot more sense than having a stupid UCI sticker on the frame.

Precisely my point???? The thing with the Aurum is no dropped seatstay, which is so much better looking. Tough decision. Also, Contador > Lance...

Kempton

I have mailed them now to ask w, t and f.

When did you book? I just checked my confirmation mail, I booked Thursday last week, and still no nothing.

So, if money was no object, one of these, or a Ventum? https://ventumracing.com/

It's along shot, anyone got a pallet? A bridge at the local MTB park is borked and I'd like to help out.

Pity.

Yeah, have the confirmation of booking but nothing after that. I see chaos arriving when we simply rock up at the time we booked, regardless of no sms or email. The hole system seems a bit retarded in my opinion.

You don't know my friends...

My takeaway is that cannondales suck, and these guys couldn't wait to get off of them...

They should remove the "no needle" policy. Pro's are gonna pro, might as well let them do it in a way that's less harmful to their livers.

Shall we call it grubby, or slightly soiled then?

No one talking about Higuita and now Lawson Craddock? What are these numpties thinking?

Just in case y'all thought the sport was clean. https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/young-danish-rider-retires-cites-rampant-use-of-pills-in-pro-peloton/
