  1. In a manner of speaking !
  2. If you are in the prizes..... don’t leave prize giving without the envelope!!!!
  3. Where does the arrogance of CL stem from? Without McLean “ CL” .... CL!!! would just be another cycling club with no deity to bow down to. This has been going on for years.... just become worse with with time. Sense of entitlement...... Not going to change no matter who sends out what communique.
  4. A much more accurate 'rule of thumb' to estimate Max HR .... If you cannot afford a scientific test.... Is 220-(n*0.64) where n= your age. This method lowered my max HR to a much more realistic level that I could actually get to. Read it in a local bike Sept 2014...
  5. I am busy with the second one. This will be a pure Ferrari branded bike. Based the paint job on the 1970's F1 of Niki Lauda. The only thing I left out is any reference to the colour blue (logos etc). Frame is almost done with the same wheel rims as the previous one. Handlebar grips , saddle and bars will be different but the same colour as the inside of the cockpit....tan leather. Need to find suitable cranks (want older, track type cranks). The final touch will be small detail Ferrari logos in key places ...... That white frame is really beautiful and the juxtaposition of the bike against the wall mural is stunning. Well done.
  6. Here is my Fixie. Running a 48:19. Has a flip/flop hub. Saddle and bars covered in red ostrich leather.
  7. Hi Lava girl I have just agreed in principle to obtain the license and distribution rights with Velocomp LLC (the manufacturers of iBike Newton) for Sub-Saharan Africa. The first units of iBike Newton Plus with PowerStroke arrived last Monday. How can I assist you? You can email me directly on wayne640925@icloud.com for now. Regards Wayne
  8. Hi Guys This is my first time commenting on a thread, so if I cross any protocols, forgive me. I have been racing for over 20 years and have been through all the training fads from LSD to F.I.D to HRM and now I have arrived at a cross road: Do I enter into the realm of PM training? My question is predicated on the following: - I have multiple bikes, so building multiple wheels or fitting multiple cranks is not a clever investment, regardless of the gain(?) I may get (by equipping one bike and which bike to equip); - If you are going to do it, do it properly i.e. buy the best and build the best because you can't be half pregnant (It's like using your analogue watch and counting your pulse In your neck with your finger tip to measure HR (-: I have investigated all of them (yes I am ....!) from PowerTap to SRM cranks, Quark Cranks, P2, as well as PowerCal and the new Garmin system. In one way or another, they all do the job, but not everything I want in one unit for multiple bikes at a single purchase price. So therefore what I would like is a solution that gives me the best of every aspect of PM training (Training programmes built into a Head Unit, every single measurement (FTP, TSS, JKT, LPP, HRM, Cad, wasted watts) you could wish for instantly available...and more!!. PM readings, interchangeable between all bikes (like a Garmin mount) with no additional hardware (other than perhaps a speed or cadence sensor, MAC/Windows software to download rides - PC internet based software analysis already done) and...able to be used indoor on my IDT when it is raining or I am....lazy!! Does such technology/unit exist?
