  1. Thanks 'Dale. Here she is, all finished, 7.5 kg with pedals, cages and Garmin mount:
  2. You going to choose that new Trek Madone 'Dale?
  3. Thanks guys, I'm like a kid on Christmas.
  4. I have a carbon bike and it's heavier than the CAAD. I just always wanted one of these and decided to get what I really want and not what makes sense. Like that steel SIR Nine I will one day own... Groupo is going to be SRAM Force. My other bikes are all Shimano and it's time for a change.
  5. Try flying big RC choppers for a while. When you go back to planes your wallet will sigh with relief!
  6. I fly electric as well. On the .40-.50 size planes it starts getting expensive beside, I like the smoke and smell of nitro. Reminds me of when my dad used to take me to the airfield.
  7. I love Great Planes kits. Yes, I have the plans and unopened box sets of both too along with a Wonder, LT Kadet, Balsa USA Stick and a few others I am saving for when I am old and can't cycle any more. Post the cub when you are done!
  8. Getting there... American Classic 420 Aero 3 with folding Gators Shimano 11/28 Ultegra Cassette Easton EC70 Post with Selle Italia Flite saddle Easton EA90 stem Pro PLT compact bar Blackburn cages
  9. Here is the Extra, flies any which way you want!
  10. Not even one day old, will wait a while to scratch it!
  11. Better than my planes got hijacked by a cannon...
  12. Okay, thanks!
  13. Ha ha, I build them from scratch, fly them and take them back whole.
  14. Thanks, they are SIG kit full builds. Midstar and a Something Extra.
  15. Time to build!
  16. Supreme egoism with no conscience.
  17. I agree with the Lance bit. Before reading this I didn't know much about it and thought he did dope but so did everybody and let's let bygones be bygones and move on. What's the point of bringing down heroes and tainting the sport? After reading the book, and even assuming Tyler is writing with extreme bias, I see Lance not as a hero but a kind of super villain. A really nasty force which deserves karmic retribution. He has been forever soured for me.
  18. Limosine has a pretty big engine. He is only looking at new bikes because he WANTS one. And because he can
  19. I knew you would cave. Curiosity killed the GOG!
  20. Easy reading GOG, two days no problem. Don't epect A Thousand Years of Solitude, this isn't Booker material. It is fun, however, for someone like me who hasn't been immersed in the road cycling culture for long to learn about Riis, Hincapie and the others during those years. You have to get past Hamilton's bloated sense of worth and conviction that he had no choice but in the end its worth it.
  21. It's for when his wife kicks him off the tandem...
  22. Got the prices off the net, RRP not specials. Will have to see what the CAAD 10 Di2 lands for in SA but should be around R36000.00 I could build that CAAD for: Frame 8500, Di2 upgrade 13000, crank and brakes 5000, finishing kit 4500 leaving 5 k for wheels and neither of those bikes come with wheels worth more than 5k.
  23. Oh come on, you ARE biased. Probably the most biased on the hub! I'll let limousine test my CAAD, I know where he lives...
  24. This bike here:
  25. It can
