Was planning on a trip up Kincumber on sunday but findin it hard to ride the bike up there due to the rust factor... think I need to get over it! PS. Jock, crafty has track nuts listed on ebay!!! I raced B1, only 4 of us, one guy got dropped early, we held off A grade but couldn't close the gap to B2 or C. |

Anyway, I'm off to DGV on Friday for a 'crash course' in track racing :D |

Hee-hee. No front basket. These guys are serious. My little one event made me rip the streamers out of the handlebars for better aero performance :roflmao:

Hadley's has a little 650c bike on sale...
|

she'll want full carbon w/Dura Ace 10 for Xmas.

Crap. It was blue, and very basic. Noticeably small, which I think is key as well. Shall I investigate more and report back after work Thursdee?

Were they the gigantic plastic levers? I know it had some funky looking levers at the top of the stem, near the bars. Perhaps 2x7? I'll check the price and spec, and I know that they're a bit flexible on pricing. Which reminds me - I may need to see if I can swap my Saturday for Sunday, otherwise I won't be available at 2:00.

:D |

You're cheap. But I'm in the same boat when it comes to kids, I just have more of them. I'd be happy if my 12 year old outgrew her bike physically. But makeup and mobile phones won out over riding with mum and dad. Perhaps I'll give it another go this year.
