were they the new ones or the Spline style BB models? the older style can regularly be found for 250, but is probably worse than what you allready have!

I want a set of 172.5's for the hard tail, but will probably just get LX... one day....

If you're anything like me, try distributing half of your family size bag of Jelly snakes into the left hand pocket of your Jersey.
:rolleyes:

Unfortunately it's not that. Doesn't matter if I have full pockets, empty pockets, or a backpack on :rolleyes:

SBS is showing "Hell on Wheels" at 11:30pm on Monday July 10th (which is a TdF rest day). Program those VCRs - unless you're a nightowl. :)

Yep new ones, still on there for 219 but limited sizes.
FWIW i got the old spliners :o

You lazy buggers coming down to DGV tonight for round 2 of the CCCC pointscore?

Is the front wheel 'square' to the bars?

An interesting question...What do you each take to eat/drink when you ride?

Yep, and the ammount of turn to the right is the same as before the headset was replaced.

Mothers Nature jam topped Muesli bars and Jelly Snakes. Bannanas for the road (I dont like squashing them when i go OTB on the MTB:p )

FWIW, Dont put the snakes directly into your pocket...I got a beaut snake stain on one of my jerseys from the Highland fling. The sun melted them into the material. Still it's a handy emergency reserve;)

for trecking around on the MTB / Road bike, just some museli bars and a GU or 2. im not into bananas, cant stand the squishiness, 1 2/3 mix of endura and 2 bottles of water (mtb) ( i dont like the bladder system for my camel back so just pack bottled into there instead.) or 1 extra bottle for road

for racing- Pre race 1 sustagen. in race: one endura mixed at 2/3 concentration, other bottles are plain water if i need them. 1 GU in each pocket ( 3) so i can be sure on reaching one of them. used to tape them to the frame but not game to do that to the cannondale....

For a long ride one bidon of water, one bidon of 1/2 strength staminade, banana, growling dog bar. Usually have a pitstop around 90kays to take on cold water, OJ, and something solid like a muffin or a pack of chips. Weet-bix within 20mins of finishing.

Jock is famous on the coast for his 6 inches of snarl! :roflmao:

And he'll share it with you is you ask:eek:
:roflmao:

Man that was a funny night!

Drinkwise usually one bidon water/one bidon electrolyte mix. Short ride maybe only water. Foodwise an energy bar or two and maybe a gel. But I tend to leave it too long and start to slow down before I remember I have food with me. :o

There is a fair chance of a coffee stop somewhere during a ride too :D

up to 2 hours, usually just water and an energy bar.

over that, more bars and gel packs and put some replacement powder in both bottles. Maybe a banana or some red frogs, something good to eat if it's along one.

I just measured it and it's only 4.5 inches. The packaging isn't even capable of holding a full 6 inches! How ripped off is that?

Did I mention before that it can be hard to breath when you've got a mouthful of the dog? It's a bit chewy

No-one wants a turkey slap from the growling dog!

Dude, you've never offered me a red frog...what gives? Secret stash? Jeez!
:p

Firstly let me berrate you for buying a Trek. What were you thinking? :P

If it's not your headset or wheels then it's your fork. If it's not that, then your frame is foobar'd.

Hey Trek! Warranty my frame, biznatch!

you gotta hang on for more than 2 hours before I pull them out :p

Ouch! *****y

your misses must love that ;)

With werds like that it might not be safe for you to race at Calga on Saturdee HDT. Might get hit by a jaguar.

I need to start eating more when I ride. I'm lucky if I remember to take some GU.

:D :D

well, if your gonna get run over by somthing it may as well be classy!

anyone know what a thomson (is there a p in there??) seat posts go for in aus?

LOL:p

Lots....one notch down from the old Syncros.

Elite is AUD210 rrp, Masterpiece is AUD319. Less if you get them from me. Even less again if you buy them with a frame!!! :D
