Frosty,
I pm'ed my choices to you yesterday - please confirm.
Team Time Trial tomorrow from noon time, everybody!!!
The TTT is on Sunday not? Stage 1 is tomorrow
Of course you should, Movistar has the coolest bikes in the peloton ... & the coolest name too!
and dont forget the groupset
Make that 5 now
Only 5 Did you receive my entry?
Hey BBox then you came in 1 spot ahead of me.
Well done - great time for your first event.
Now that I got the "official" distance on the run legs I feel a bit better on my run times
Got to cycle with a nice bunch - thus a very enjoyable ride for me.
Great stuff that the weather played along.
We must have been in the same bunch then... the guys worked well together.
Even though I felt very good on the bike the last run was a big struggle. Felt like i was dragging a tire behind me.
I must agree. A very well organised event....
I enjoyed every second of it... Managed a 1h50min for 40th overall. This being my first multi sport event ever I think the bug has bitten
My results were tampered with..... I don't and have never used PEDs
Monark, as a point of departure, you will notice that the budget of a few hubbers do not allow them access to the modern day conversion of bigger wheels, so instead of minding their own business and sticking to their mtbikes of yesteryear, they will nose around in threads where they have very little knowledge, and post irrelavant nonsense, and attempt to mock the world wide 29er hype. Just remember, this crowd is however very small, and as they are saving up their hard earned cash and converting one by one, the group becomes smaller, so that one day we will be able to post 29er threads without remarks from green-eyed-monsters.
Back to your Q on the cockpit - It is believed that 29ers are better controlled by a wider flat bar with a shorter stem, and a racier setup to compensate for the raised front-end. A proper bike fit is however still the route to follow to ensure that you enjoy many miles on your bike.
Take that you evil 26ers!
Its great as a recovery drink!
50g Future Life
50ml low fat milk
2 scoops whey protein
Water
works for me......
Frosty got it right regards starting bunches, the lead groups of the bunches finished in the order they started. Had they started according to how CSA originally wanted it there would have been serious overlaps particulary with C4 and AL group.
+1 Organisers were spot on!
And so the CAT3 bunch this time caught the A bunch
How did Cat 3 catch the A Bunch if thei time is 2min slower? They probably caught the A bunch riders who had mechanicals.
hmm? Ok......
We have succeeded in our application to the Chief Com to start the groups in order of fastest average speed at recent races.
Cat 1 06:00 (134Km)
Tandem 06:55 (103Km)
Cat2 07:05 (103Km)
AL 07:15 (103Km) - don't disappoint us now, pedal dammit
Cat3 07:20 (103Km)
Cat4 07:25 (103Km)
BL 07:35 (103Km)
More to follow shortly
Fantastic! Thats awesome news.
I'm with you, can I sit on your wheel for the first 100km ? :thumbup:
Kid, when are you joining us in the A bunch?
If I'm not mistaken the route is pretty similar to ride for sight?
a Powerbalance band should do the trick. You are clearly off balance
My 2c will be a well done to the A bunch for getting the surprise of starting with the tandems and be fast as it were, and still managed to do a good Safety job under the circumstances
I agree
I'm still shaking... Had a few close calls on Sunday. Finished with and avg speed of 43km/H...... Dangerous stuff!
Replace it with Campagnolo There is a whole list of things it could be.... Try the search function, it worked for me.
Wow!! I like!
Just ride up to somebody in the bunch and ask them for a sip of their energy drink..... (Yes this actually happened!)
My Ma! for forcing me to cycle to school come rain or shine
Hi, my name is "the_wes" and I have an addiction........
