"The 33"-Road Bike Racing - Had to do it--5,000th thread in the Racing Forum!!!

Woohoo!!!

I like to race my bike. What wheels should I buy? <---- (mandatory show of cycling relevance)

Open pro/Dura Ace/DT Spokes/Zipp 404/PowerTap/Tubular/Clincher/Record/Mike Garcia wheels are the only way to go.

I've read many a post in the road forum that espouses the quality of sora and tiagra components. Check your LBS, find every bike that is equipped with said components, and then empty your wallet - you CAN'T go wrong :D

I hate Botto!

:eek: you forgot:

internal 3 speed hub w/
electricity generator for your head light
high flanges
ceramic bearings
coaster brake
dimples.

rim must not be machined for brakes,
use veloplugs instead of rim tape,
tubular and clincher compatible
all stickers removed and replaced with those cool holographic stickers
velocity's eggplant color
dimples.

I don't hate him nearly as much as DrPete.

Apparently so.

For the record, Rosie would get dropped by The Donald, but the world would be better off if they fell into a vat of HCl.

who's on first?

Your self loathing disgusts me.

I will make only one bike related statement. After which all argument will be meaningless:

Campy Rules..Shimano Sucks.

You can all go home now.

i hate us all.


Bingo!

Campy Rules..Shimano Sucks.


You must hate yourself, also.

What's the best way to drill out my Fulcrum Racing 1 rims to accept a Schrader valve?

who are you people?!

Im starting to wonder that myself.

I'm having trouble installing reflectors on the bladed spokes. Ideas?

Hot glue gun. Or a stapler.

who are you people?!

We're a rumor, recognizable only as deja vu and dismissed just as quickly. We don't exist; We were never even born. Anonymity is our name. Silence our native tongue. We're no longer part of the System. We're above the System. Over it. Beyond it. We're "them." We're "they."

Your self loathing disgusts me.

you're not the only one. i hate myself so much, i continue posting in road cycling.
