LOL

fill 'em with Gatorade (or other preferred sports drink)

Thanks fellas. Are they expensive though?

[edit] Seems from looking at the Phantom Cycles site they aren't. So the plain DT Champion spokes are good enough, or he really should spring for the almost 3 times more expensive DT Competition ones?

Yes, with a $199 service charge.

Saccy, about a buck and change each.

Should be less than $1 per spoke plus wheel building costs.

You'll end up with bullet proof wheels that'll last ages. I've ridden over a 50x50 (2 x 2 in the old measurements) post lying across the road in the dark going about 25kmh on my training wheelset (DT & Mavic CXP22 rims) and not busted or bent anything - I just got a hell of a surprise at going airborne suddenly.

Now how is filling the girls from my past with Gatorade gonna help my sore throat?

The difference between the DT Competition and Champion will be weight with the Competition being butted. Any DT spoke should do the job.

Sweet. Thanks vette.

Bought myself a new jersey on ebay on night after a few too many beers, turns up and its clearly a fake from a puported online bike store...
Still at least they are refunding but I need to cover postage costs

I saw the clown with the jerseys. Sorry you got sucked in.

Only bought it to match a dirt cheap pair of semi-matching nicks I got... also while drunk, hence why my new outfit is Pink!

Anyone looking for a pair of biemme black/pink flames T-mobile USA nicks? size s/m?

link? pic? i have to see these...

Did you happen to notice the rider profiles on the page you linked to?

Dude. I love flames! even in hot pink!

And no, I didnt know that it was the 'womens' team when I bought them.
I guess my mates GF back home will pick up some free bibs as she rides a giant.

they were cheap too... and they fit, think anyone apart from you Bistads will notice?

They're not cut with any room for a package. You ok with that?

Weren't you fellas back about 4 versions of the Aussie thread going on at one stage about wimins bibs being good for the arse?

Pauls been gelded. Shouldn't be a problem

Think that was me again buying cheap assos bibs..

That was MHO sacman. Dunno about bibs, the shorts are OK. I have found lycra can stretch an enormous amount

Only because I told you.

By the way, that chamois lotion from Italy that I ordered - awesome! If any of you have a serious rash/sore problem, you'll have to get some. Seriously.

I cant believe the Aussie thread has come to my knob stretches lycra more than your knob.

Might start a new knob bulge pic thread!

You sure are the entrepenure Expat. Even when the AT stoops to the lowest level you can still find a sale in there somewhere!

hmmm... I wonder how mrs shaw will take the news... I'm considering changing clubs already.

G'day guys, so this is where the Aussies hang out.

Just a question about your remedy HDTVKSS, how exactly did you rinse your sinuses?? I went down with the flu last week courtesy of having kids at kindy so it's waaay too late for me, but maybe next time....

I'll send you guys that stuff at cost. I've given up on sales some time ago.

Here's a big knob pic though:

Geez Expat, I feel so sorry for you. Your knob only goes up to 8! I'm hoping you'll still be able to lead a normal life tho.
