You need to start earlier Antony.

We’re registered and have booked our accommodation. I’m doing the 170 and Marian’s doing the 100

I’m riding to Kurnell/Cape Solander every day the rapha 500 is on.Starting At Marrickville post square at 6:30. C25 pace. All welcome

Another variable is how hard you are pushing to keep up on the ride. If you are going flat out from the start and working hard then you might find you will feel like throwing up if you have to much just before the ride. If you are just cruising and not going anaerobic then eating isn't so much of a ...

geoffs

I've done a lot of body work on datsun 1600's i've had in the past.
I've also spent time helping a friend restoring a morris minor and welding the new panels in was no problem at all. forming up sheet to fill in gaps was a pain.
I don't have a welder. I still have all my body shaping hammers though

geoffs

how about installing this kit http://www.zcarsuk.com/store/index.php? ... duct_id=62
It might save you a bit of panel work

geoffs

you can most probably get new panels to replace the ones that are rusted out. It's easier to weld a new piece in rather than weld patches in epecially on sections with compound curves and corners http://www.minisport.com/mini-body-repair-panels http://www.minispares.com/shop/classic/Body/Panel.aspx?...

We are trying to do some laps in the park on the way to dropping marian at work

We were on our way to the Henson for lunch via a circuitous route.
We are commuting on the tandem so after i drop Marian at work I am stokerless

We use a superB cable cutter at work. It has a small point on pivot which does a great job of flaring the inside of the cable housing

As Weiyun said, keep the chain and cassette as a pair if you want the best life from them

One pair of look Carbon pro pedals - old but bearings still ok but the part wear the cleat rubs is seriously worn

I have had to do a bit of tweaking on one of the 2013 front derailleur. Set it up exactly as the manual says and then give the cage a slight bend where it's rubbing.

Good choice on the wheelset :-}

Hi Greg All you ever wanted to know about knee pain may be found here http://www.stevehoggbikefitting.com/blog/2011/11/knee-pain/ Any shop that does a bike fit using numbers and formulas such a Burwood, BG Fit etc is guess work at best. Have a read of this http://www.stevehoggbikefitting.com/blog/20...

Built up a few bikes with the new SRAM Red and I did my first new Force yesterday. The SRAM Red is just fantastic. the major complaint with the Red used to be the poor fr derailleur shifting. That has been solved with their new Yaw mechanism and it now shifts as well as Di2. The new Force I have bee...

I was posting more for anyone else who was looking at getting wheels as you had already made your decision. I'm sure you'll be happy with your wheels. The Ti cassette body on the T11 hub is a good idea. DT540, WI and CK (classic not the R45) are the hubs of choice for tandem wheels. Our tandems carr...

geoffs

CK hubs appear to roll a lot better than White industries in fact I'd go as far as saying that CK hubs roll better than anything else out there. I recently built a set of open pro's to DT190's and I think my CK/A23 wheels are better. My last wheel set was built using DA hubs which were good but not ...

Well nearly everything Stuart H I think gives a better description of what the effect is of using the brakes which is as follows: Using the front brake while turning will cause the bike to understeer or tend to go wide. This is a bad thing. Using the rear brake will cause oversteer or cause the bike...

This is the weekend that we come back from Paris on so unfortunately we wont be able to make it

geoffs

congratulations on the award Adrian. Well deserved!

geoffs

Good for a laugh.
Harley is a real character. One time that he needed to Steve Hogg regarding some fit issues, he rode here and back from Adelaide

geoffs

From the eyewitness account that was related to me yesterday at work, the cyclist were riding straight ahead along the road when the truck turned into them.

geoffs

Tim - there might be worse people in Sydney to emulate than Liam Kelly but you would really be scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Marc - read "the big book of training and endurance racing" dr phillip maffetone. Cheaper on amazon than locally

geoffs

So where did you get the coffee from?
Does it taste as good as it looks?

geoffs

Best wishes to Marc on a speedy recovery.
Very glad that Stuart had his camera recording and here's hoping the footage is useful to the police

geoffs

Good idea to carry something with emergency contact info.
Having an ICE (in case of emergency) number on your phone is pretty useless as most people lock their phone with pin numbers.

geoffs

We are flying in to Hobart on the 13th and will ride a zig zag route to Evandale arriving on the 24th.

Looking good Christian

Where did you buy the aluminium sections from?

geoffs

I've seen too many bianci's with cracked frames. Not recommended

geoffs

I'd go for the ultegra also. Sram front derailleurs aren't as good as campag or shimano. Campag are completely rebuildable where as shimano isn't. Shimano levers last a very long time. As to wheels, i wouldn't touch mavic with a 10' barge pole. They are crap and if you ride the ones with alloy inser...

geoffs

Not much you can do about a puncture in the middle of a corner. I've tried doing this at over 60kmh and the resulting skin loss wasn't fun. As for sliding out on the paint I would say that that is a skills problem that is learnt best by sliding out on paint. You wont do this again ( I hope) as it's ...

geoffs

Sorry to hear about your collision. You should be able to swap all the parts onto a new frame. I was talking to a company that imports bike and frames from Taiwan importer in Melbourne last week and he offered me unpainted 58cm good quality aluminium frames for $250. I think a fork was included but ...

geoffs

Hi James, i'm glad you were only looking at the nanos as an onsell item. They have a big sticker on the box which says "Race Day Only"
They seem to light to have any longevity. Even the ti pedals wont survive anyone over 70kg

geoffs

Congratulations on being brave enough to do this. I'd love to do the same one year.
For bike design software have a look at www.bikeforest.com
Have you thought of using any of Henry James offerings?
What's your timeline for this project?

geoffs

Not as easy as you think and a lot of bike shops are doing it very tough due to the amount of internet sales.
A bike shop who's owner comes to our shop for a beer sometimes has only just started breaking even after 12months and we know of a few that will be closing

geoffs

The odds of the spokes being the right length are slim unless you do some homework and purchase a hub that has identical flange diameter. I re-use spokes when a rim is being replace so that the spokes stay in the same place. if the hub is to be replaced I always use new spokes. If you just want to p...

geoffs

when we sell velocity pre built wheels, I normally spend a good 30mins per wheel getting the spoke tension and wheel "roundness" to Steve's standard

geoffs

another good book to read is one by Roger Musson http://www.wheelpro.co.uk/wheelbuilding/book.php which is an Ebook. Well worth the $9 If spokes are breaking at the nipple you must have copped a dud batch of spokes as fatique always takes it's toll at the elbow. Rear wheels should be built with the ...

He does a very thorough assessment to ascertain what the issues are and then sets about fixing them. He is the guy That Steve Hogg sends people to which is how i found out about him

We send broken frames over to bike addiction to get repaired. The guy who fixes the frames used to be the composites guru at Ferrari apparently.
