Hey, we get most of our technology from Europe. Follow The Rules of the Cog as set out by the Velominati (google is your friend at this point)

I've got the rules saved on my desktop, I know what they are, just don't agree with a few of them.

 

These kids of today have no class or style!

 

No, I'd just rather finish the race if I get a puncture than sit at the side of the road waiting for somebody to come and pick me up.

What I said earlier, about it being uncomfortable wasn't entirely true.

I have no issues riding with things in my back pocket, but I get lower back pains, and that just ruins the ride for me.

 

The only time I don't ride with it is if there is a back up vehicle with my spare wheels, otherwise it just doesn't make sense time wise.

Zac, you are 15yo (if I remember correctly) - lower back pains aren't from carrying a tube and tyre lever in the back pouch.... I on the other hand can complain about back pains. LOL!
