  1. Anybody from Somerset West/Strand area picking their race pack up today? My mate went to get mine and his today but they had some admin problem and he couldn't get it. I've sorted the admin problem out but I cant get to Mowbray today. If anyone can help a brother out PM me. Thanks!
  2. Sorry, I really should have put that one in Comic Sans
  3. I just feel sorry for all the people that have to find new hotels to stay at
  4. Hey guys, I'm starting my planning early for my first Eroica in 2018. I've got the bike, got the legs (i think), just need to source some period correct kit. My question to those that have done the ride before: what gear ratios are you using? and what are the limitations of these old derailleur cages as far as cassette size goes? I'm used to riding a compact crankset so this 53/39 business is taking some getting used to
  5. My thoughts exactly, front and back. I'm hoping the wind is kind enough to deposit me within crawling distance of the finish line
  6. Based on current weather predictions, what rim depths are you lads going with?
  7. Yoh! It'll be intersting to see how Sven and Sven do when and if they decide to put the hammer down
  8. Sub 3, the amount of time I will spend at each stand
  9. And there's a chance of rain you say... What colour tshirts are they wearing again? Why isnt there a milk chocolate Bar One!
  10. Guys, I keep hearing about this Bar One stand, whispered in hallowed and reverential tones. As a first time Argus rider, please elaborate! Do I need to wear horse blinders so I dont get seduced into stopping?
  11. I keep reading that the watts saving is negligible with these things but everytime i see them something happens deep within my loins
  12. It's looks might not appeal to every taste, but there is something beautiful about a machine designed to do just one thing well... in this case, to go fast!
  13. Not to mention 500% cooler sounding with that electronic mech noise!
  14. Only time will tell if we'll be looking back at these saying "what were we thinking?"
  15. Thanks for giving us a unique look at this iconic race. Best of luck, i'm sure you'll do yourself and SA proud
  16. There are tons of resources online for building your own printers and what's cool is a lot of the parts can themselves be 3D printed. 3D printers printing 3D printers, its only a matter of time before Skynet (I mean the one from Terminator, not the courier company )
  17. Its definitely on my Christmas wishlist for sure, i've lost count of how many times i've need a small part or accessory and thought "wouldn't it be great to just 3D print it". There is also a massive online resource for pre-designed doodads.
  18. Hey guys, Anyone on the hub experiment with their own 3D printing? Its an exciting industry that i'm only recently dabbling in but the potential for truly custom parts is really cool. Anyone made their own quadlock/garmin mounts, tri-bars etc etc. Keen to see whats out there
