Re: Bicycle Politics
Stuart,
Hahaha, sounds like a stunt to me. Those Greens will stop at nothing to prevent trees being turned into decent library books for our children's children!
Hand delivered to all of Marrickville? That's one resourceful old lady!

Re: Loop the Lake 2011
Another reason to like the MTB SPD cleats/shoes. You can even push your bike home (or up the hill ) with them on.don't stand around in cleats when you're not riding.

Re: Adventure Rides 2011 - 6am Easter Friday 22nd Apr - Go N
Thanks Stu. Yes, and there's often numerous logging trucks. I'll be out there EARLY and hope the return is uneventful. The ride from Wauchope on is the best bit. I'll be riding with my brother in law and he wants to do the Comboyne ride sometime that weekend as well, if we can fit it in. Should be a...

Re: Groupsets, Is there really that much of a difference?
I've had dura-ace, ultegra, 105 and Tiagra over the years. Still have dura-ace, 105, Tiagra and Deore (and some Campagnolo).

If you had a prosthetic you would hate to have to buy a shoe you didn't need. Nothing else for it. Sell it on ebay to someone who's had their other leg off!
