Just scooted down to Bike Now in my lunchbreak......it's about 40 degrees outside, BTW.
Last year's T-Mobile Giants have had the guts cut out of them. I reckon if you sounded a bit keen, they'd get another haircut.

I guess that's why 35% of Beach Roadians ride Giants; they're good value
last year's look HEAPS better than the new ones.

I always liked the Team Saeco Cannondallies
A guy started a thread to brag about his 720 pound leg press, titled: "I can leg press more than you"

Hey Ed, got a little tear in one of my quads (rectus I think). With good management it'll be fine in a couple of days time, but what's the chance of reinjuring the site doing standing starts on Sunday week? Any way to avoid reinjuring it apart from not competing?

all the leg muscles get excellent blood flow, so it should heal well if left alone.

so you've got a friend who's coming back from the south of France soon
what do you want him to bring you?
A groupset?
Clothes?
Tyres?
A frame?
cheese?
