I'll teach you vic. Good skill to have!

rhys

How long is it, and what gradient?

rhys

To stop cramping, I stretch of a night time and drink heaps of water, whenever I can. If I am going for a long and/or torturous ride, a few days before I will start drinking lots of mixed up Endura. This is great for warding off cramps. As far as losing weight, I'm not too sure because I've always b...

perhaps an opportunity to wear my full Gan kit.

rhys

I have quite wide feet and I'm enjoying great success with Lake shoes at the moment. They are not euro enough for me though, so when I'm overseas I'm going to try some Northwaves or some of those Specialized ones on for size.
Lake though, are fantastic.

+30 today. Started waterfall ride with Andres at 5:30am but had two rim tape punctures at Brighton and had to turn back. Did a few laps with Eddy on cargo bike in the afternoon.

I'll probably show up for this one.

I haven't got any from this month but I'll see how I go this weekend.

28km yesterday in Eden and 55km on the spin bike on the ship today. I'm on my phone so someone else might have to update the list. Takes me to 164km.

I have petite hands and find sram much easier to reach in the drops than any of the 4 shimano groupsets I've owned.

I'll be in next time when I know about it sooner - I just checked here now.

At last week's ride, there was talk among a few people of changing the start point for Sunday Waterfall runs.

If this ride goes over the harbour bridge, ill meet you guys on the northern side at the bottom of the steps. Probably be there around 615.

rhys

I plan to attend this ride.

rhys

I find that mine doesn't acquire satellites when I'm moving. It takes a while, but not too long when I'm stationary. A few people did the firmware update and had problems like this, but it seemed to fix itself.

rhys

The way I understand it, your body needs to rebuild muscle after you flog yourself silly during a workout/training session. You'll rebuild quicker and better if you give yourself some protein powder instead of your body cannibalising itself while you sleep and rebuilding from fat stores etc. (I'm pr...

rhys

Even the waterfall run is too hilly.

I will be at sea. I hate my job.

rhys

I'd avoid it if possible.

rhys

It will probably rain anyway. Balls.

rhys

I try and do this at work and it always freezes on me. Will try at home when I get the chance.

rhys

I don't think velobeats has a record label, it's a guy who does it in his house for fun?

rhys

I am a bit late to this party, but I'll throw my 2c in anyway. I've ridden Tiagra, tri-colour 600, 6600 ultegra, 7400 dura-ace, 7600 dura-ace, and for 3 days now I have ridden sram red. As far as I'm concerned, you can't really go wrong with ultegra. It will last forever and if it doesn't, any shop ...

rhys

No love for http://www.velobeats.com ? This guy does his own mixes with cycling/spin in mind, and there are occasionally sound clips of Jens Voigt, Boonen etc to keep you motivated. Most of them sit around 140bpm so they are a good workout cadence, or you can cruise at 70rpm to the beat too. Hugo an...

rhys

EMT, I'll be at the track tonight and Wednesday too. My felt is 52 square but has a big drop to deep sprint drops. You could get an idea of the standover height etc if you wanted to look at it though. It's a tough call really. If you're getting something you're going to keep for ages, then 650 might...

rhys

Do you only have the frame, or do you have the parts that are on it in that picture? If you do have the parts, are they 600 or Dura ace brifters? Those go for heaps, and would possibly pay for half your groupset. I just sold some clapped-out Dura ace 8-speed 7400 brifters (similar to those pictured)...

rhys

I just bought some compact drops for my road bike that are 31.8 clamp, so I need a new stem. The catch is, the person I got my forks from cut the steerer pretty short, so the pinch bolts on the stem need to be pretty close together because it's a tight setup. If anyone has something that fits this d...

rhys

I encounter morons like this every day on my commute, and it's only 5kms long! I have taken to using the 'tree-root' paths instead now, because even though it adds 10 minutes to my ride, at least I get there.
How do you change the whole of society's perception?

rhys

I think Shaun Colley and Simonelli's are the best looking BT's I've seen. I would definitely own one like Shauns.

rhys

I'd also be keen for one or two a month.

rhys

I'll be there to spectate a little after 3. What bike have you got? I'll say hi.

rhys

It's so much easier when you only have a bmx. A hammer, a piece of wood, and some allen keys are all you need. Why oh why did I ever start riding big wheels.

rhys

Loctite is a good thing to have too.

rhys

I think I've seen you at Slowies once before, do you have a Bianchi? It was a long time ago.

rhys

Sickening news. I hope he heals properly and quickly.

Thanks for waiting for me today guys, I appreciate it a lot. It was nice to meet some new club members. I was appalled at the behaviour of some citizens behind the wheel though. After I separated from Justin and Christian, I had 4 bottles thrown at me from different vehicles and was nearly run over....

rhys

I'll be there Christian, I think Hugo is coming along too. Would be great to take advantage of the lack of traffic for this ride. Eastern beaches can be done any time (for me at least).

rhys

I found a raffle ticket in my building foyer, it's a purple D12. Not sure if it's a winner but if anyone wants it, all yours.

No problem I'll bring it monday night.

Wow, the effort you put into these things is great Simon. I'll do my best to attend as many of these as I can this year.

rhys

I have an Braun iron going for free if anyone needs it. Works perfectly, not sure how old it is. I'll check back tonight/tomorrow and I can bring it to the track tomorrow night if someone wants it.

rhys

rhys

I spotted Lindsay a week or two back crossing flinders/anzac pde on south dowling st. Quite odd as I never see anyone from this forum out and about.

rhys

Real nice guy, best of luck.

rhys

So tomorrow morning is on? I feel like a decent ride.

rhys

From what I could see a few people had Di2, and the majority sram red.

rhys

I could probably lose 15kg, I've been in the 90s now for a loooong time. I'm so mad I missed the fat bastards race at RAW, as my bmi is 31 or something ridiculous. I guess it would come down to the kind of training you have to do, and if you are training for more power would it matter if that made y...

rhys

I find that just doing whatever the hell you want and eating and drinking when you like is really quite preferable to caring about all of that stuff. I am at this stage in my 'career' where I don't train, do ok, and it's still really fun. If I was to start getting serious and watching what I eat, s...

rhys

The speed they averaged for the length of the race was intense, especially considering Coogee was corner/sprint, followed by corner/sprint. Di2 shifts sound so violent and Zipps going past at 45km/h sound good enough for me to sell my car to get some.

Great pics Stuart!

Glad to hear it was yet another success, and boy-wonder alex in his pink kit rode well.

rhys

"Post your quads" thread!

rhys

I hear the Coogee criterium today turned out to be a carnage due to water on the road. There were maybe three 'crashes' at the top turn, and two at the bottom. It was a pretty cool event, a lot of people just walking past were asking my two friends and I (obvious cyclists due to our attire) questio...

The track equivalent of attacking while your opponent's chain comes off.

I saw someone riding off oxford onto crown st yesterday evening around 6:20pm, in a DHBC jersey. I was at mad mex having a wonderful burrito. I don't remember the bike he was on because I had to many beers, but I think he may have had boardshorts and a backpack.

rhys

Good luck in the madison Alex/Simon. I'll be in nowra for the two weeks surrounding that race, and can't justify getting a train back up when there are no events for me in the program.

rhys

Victoria spotted me this evening while I was out walking with my wife. She was in the DHBC jersey and I was in extreme walking clothes, so its kind of an 'unspotted'.

rhys

Working. One day I'll get to an omnium

rhys

This was an enjoyable thread to read. Well done to all involved

rhys

Spotted Brian Yewenji riding his recumbent at Hercules St Dulwich Hill with Bike Marrickville. I honked the car twice as I passed and he ignored me thinking I was an irate driver behind the wheel. The double-beep is universally accepted as "Hey! I know you!". In my opinion anyway. It's mu...

I can drop you home Jo. Your little bike will fit in my boot

I'm really looking forward to this. I'm going to try and improve on my 13.4 from last time, even though I've not ridden much since June.

rhys

rhys

And I just threw the receipt for my Lazer out yesterday

rhys

I should be there, this event was great last time.

rhys

My BMI is ~32, I would love to ride that race. Shame I'll be stuck at work. I won't be able to make the week after either, so there go my hopes of leading Anthony out to glory.

rhys

Wow. Was it caused by inexperience? I hope Matt is ok, and crashes like this don't deter people from putting on more events. Should we start a donation from everyone to get Matt a new helmet? $5-10 each here and there would get a bit together.

rhys

I believe the law is worded something to the effect of, "One must exit a vehicle in a manner not to cause harm or discomfort to another party". So if you're lane-splitting, which is perfectly legal, and someone car doors you, you'll be in the right. However it might not seem like it when y...

rhys

One day I'll ride div 1. Not any time soon though.

rhys

No late fees huh. Guess I'll just sit around home in my derps instead. I realise on the day entry is harder for organisers, but with my work/life schedule, I don't know what I'm doing three days from now, let alone two weeks or a week's time. It makes trying to race anything but RAW a real pain.

rhys

What's involved in going up a division? Do I just sign up there Friday?

rhys

Glad this thread was made as it's cleared a few things up for me. Being my first club road ride, I wasn't sure which group to go with so I thought I'd try the 28s, and 20 minutes into the ride I was wondering where the '28' came from. I must say that it didn't really bother me that we went faster th...

rhys

What is your max speed out of curiousity? I need to get some sort of computing device to get this of information for myself.

rhys

We had a big gap in our team too. I think our third rider was going backwards

rhys

Way to go Annoying, you were on fire last friday.

rhys

Weather permitting I will come to one of these rides.

rhys

I have two or three friends who are keen to come down and give the track a go, can we organise for them to have forms to fill out/ride it licenses on the day?

rhys

Looking good guys. I'll be there this week. What has been happening in div 4, a lot of dangerous riding?

rhys

I'd be happy to wash it after races. Also, see you guys tonight in my new DHBC jersey. Woohoo!
