NICE!!!
sorry but isnt that quite expensive for a pair of radars?
haha the Hub seems to be the most dangerous and hostile place a person can try to sell something that is either rubbish or has not been scientifically accepted worldwide (ie. powerbands, compression garmets etc.) 
Keep it up guys!!!
cervelo i echo you there. If people want to do stupid things they must live with the consequences. and just because a kid is 16 doesnt mean that he doesnt know what hes doing.
Smokers who get lung cancer and drinkers who get liver cancer shouldnt look to me for sympathy
The other plroblem is that there are parents who encourage the doping and think their kids are their own "second chance"
People are quick to say how much doping takes place in cycling, but forget about the extent of steroid abuse in schoolboy rugby. There was a research article a few years ago where it was estimated that close to 80% of the players at the St Stithians rugby festival had used some kind of steroid during the year. What makes it even more scary is that the players wont deny it if you accuse/ question them about it. I guess that kids these days will do anything for "hero" status at their school
today we arrived in montagu. we clocked 169kms on our bikes. weather was good, with headwinds for the last 50kms.
Announcing the launch of the 2010 Grey Cycle Tour!
On 5 January 2010, 10 Cyclists from Grey High School will ride from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth to raise funds for the Eastern Province Children's Home. In addition to the cyclists from Grey, 2 boys from the EP Children's Home will also accompany the team for an experience we hope they will never forget! The aim of the tour is to raise R50 000. The 2008 tour raised R580 000 and thus, with your help and support, we are confident that we can reach our target. The team will cover a distance of 1000km over 8 days.
The route is as follows:
1. Grabouw - Montsgu (160km)
2. Montagu - Barrydale (63km)
3. Barrydale - Oudtshoorn (175km)
4. Oudtshoorn - George (60km
5. George - Plettenberg Bay (100km)
6. Plettenberg Bay - Storms River (60km)
7. Storms River - Jeffery's Bay (107km)
8. Jeffery's Bay - Port Elizabeth (75km)
There is a website which has all the information about the charity, riders and history of the previous tours. Pictures and blogs will also be updated on a daily basis.

at first I thought you were taking the piss and found the original post quite funny.it's quality not quantityNot to step on toes here but I find it strange that the posts from the ROOKIE clan makes that little bit more sense than some of our "more experienced" hubbers. Why is that?I sommer know I'm going to open a can of worms with this..as kirk lazarus would say:'everybody knows you never go full rookie'however it appears you are dead serious and would actually like ADMIN to change your status because you know how to ride a bike and don't like to talk ***.am undecided as to which is funnier now.but well done for starting it(not many rookies can claim a 30+ thread made up entirely from a brainfart)' date=' if nothing else you're closer to becoming a 'domestique'. nothing actually changes, but you can print out a noddy badge to hang up at home.[/quote']
Enjoy it!
well it looks awsum!
thanks guys! im sorted now
ps. campy dont make mtb grouppos
it touches in all the gears when im in the big blade
I am currently having problems with chain lag/drag/wear against my FD when in the big blade of my crank (campy veloce FD, centuar crank)
the only way to stop this is to adjust the FD so that the cable is very tight. Is this bad and going to lead to a cable snapping?
Anyone else had a similar problem?

clinchers or tubbies
in Technical Q&A
Posted
tubbies have the tube stitched inside the tyre and are glue onto the rim of the wheel. clinchers are your convential road wheel where the tube is seperate to the tyre.
tubbies are generally much lighter than clinchers and used for racing
