    Epic Entry

    I have a mate who has an entry available.

  13. If you know the dimension and weights of your hubs and rims, you can use the DW Swiss Spoke Length Calculator (see link on www.dtswiss.com) to get a good estimate of the wheel's weight. I have seen other weight calculators, but they don't take into consideration the spoke length (which changes if its a radial, 2 cross or 3 cross build).

    damon watson

    Some pretty big gaps he jumps there! (I cant help thinking that local councils must hate this kind of activity. Those custbins, handrails, electricity boxes etc take quite a beating!)
  18. Thank Goodness! I thought you were trying to start another Contador thread or get into the merits of farming practices in Spain or why a professional cyclist needs a gyneacologist (to look after his mangina?)
  19. I have the Gatorskins to train on. GP4000s for road races and Mountain/Race Kings on my MTB. By sheer fluke, my car came with some sort of Contis as well.
  20. Try this tactic: (edit: Iron has this tactic working for him) Four married guys go golfing.While playing the 4th hole, the following conversation took place: 1st Guy: "You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out golfing this weekend. I had to promise my wife that I will paint every room in the house next weekend." 2nd Guy: "That's nothing, I had to promise my wife I will build a new deck for the pool." 3rd Guy: "Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife I will remodel the kitchen for her. They continued to play the hole when they realized that the 4th guy hadn't said anything. So they asked him, "You haven't said anything about what you had todo to be able to come golfing this weekend. What's the deal?" 4th guy: "I just set my alarm for 5:30 a.m. and when it went off, I shut off the alarm, gave the wife a nudge and said, 'golf course or intercourse?' And she said, "Wear your sweater".
  21. Christie: I was just gonna post that!
