dev null Posted March 6, 2020 Share Are you allowed to cable-tie the number board to your seatpost? It's a bit awkward on the bars with cable and garmin etc I did it before. They did not complain about it or stop me at the shute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stiggy Posted March 6, 2020 Share Guys, I actually can't read anymore on this thread. The reason why: on wednesday during the last of one of my training rides, chain snapped on my mountain bike (road bike already being trucked to CT) and ended up in a heap on the ground, find out I've got 2 fractured ribs and a very badly bruised hip. Walking is a problem so definitely out for Sunday.Some might say it's karma as it was my wife's bday and I shouldn't have ridden. Anyway still coming down, we've got a week in CT. There goes no. 12 and potentially my first sub 3........... You guys can thank me for the perfect weather on sunday!Enjoy and be safe out there Dadbod Racing, DJR, Mamil and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeoKnight Posted March 6, 2020 Share My basic Samsung J8 informs significant others of my position on every ride - from 1 to 9 hours without running flat or overheating using Garmin Live track - a service which seems to have ironed out it's teething problems. And the benefit if you using the Garmin's "GPS", then you can switch off your phone's GPS, thus saving more battery power Mamil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"But today's made up for everything." The 197.5-kilometer (122-mile) course passed over six climbs, one so steep that Hamilton, the American leader of the CSC team from Denmark, seemed to wipe away tears of suffering. matthieup and DieselnDust 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is definitely not recommend to sneeze at the moment. You might get stoned or necklaced by the Corona Police dev null and aquaratza 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karooryder Posted March 6, 2020 Share My turn at last...boarding the green bird for CT soon and even though she's delayed, I can't wait to soak up the Argus vibe once again. Passing the delay in the lounge carbo-loading. Did you know that there are much carbs in Jenewer...? MDJ and DJR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
