Yep, Stuey going great, where's Cookie though ???

Hope his bad leg thing hasn't come back.


Probably still sore as a ***** after that little dago put him into the fence. :D

about time....

Scotty, did you get it too?

looks like the rugby players may have caffeine banned again. AIS says it's performance enhancing, even in a small dose.

Munchie, Saccy.......check yer mailbox tomorrow. Might be a prezzie in there for ya :D

What about me?

Yeah maps are good..... I'm already planing next assault! Where have you been? :rolleyes:

We need to go ride killingworth too!

Anyone recommend a good XC riser bar/stem combo for my MTB?

Are you running for the next Australian Idol? That ship has sailed! :D

Ok, I'm on a post frenzy.....

Posted this on the MTB Forum.... no replies, hence my request for bar/stem info on this thread.

Anyone out there got a copy of the trail map from the 2004 Polaris held at Pretty Beach, NSW Australia?

If you're a weenie, Ritchey WCS stem and Answer ProTaper carbon. If you're not, Thompson X4 stem with Azonic CF-1 bars. If you're on a tight budget, I have no no clues.

Funny, I noticed you comparing stems. I assume you're looking for brand suggestions, as the measurements are based on personal choice/fit. I do have that Easton stem and some light (flat) bars, but more stuff may surface as I clean out in preparation for moving.

Drooooooooool :love:

wow, I've never used that smiley b4. Now I know why :D

The stagecoach only comes past here with the mail once a month. Don't know if tomorrows that day, but I'll wait by the mailbox all morning just in case. :)

Thanks for that...

Expat.. any details on that stem? :)

Didn't really shake the foundations for me, some of it actually had me on the floor laffin. Aldag. There's a man in need of a small dose of humility! :D

Aldag and Zabel....apparently they're the only two in the race.

some of the footage looks great though !

first Aussie home last night, the youngster, Rory Sutherland, 21 mins back. :(

Rogers got 5th behind Piepoli at Catalunya.

that's good, he's our man in July along with Cadel.

you's would have heard about the hypovarric chamber the aussies are using for high altitude trainning has come under the dopping rules? on the news this mornning.

What a crock. There's no proof those things do anything at all.

lowering the oxygen in a tent would make life harder to breath, shorlly they thay would have some reason to use one,scared the aussies might be getting the jump the rest of the teams.

They had a sports doctor on SBS last night talking about them. Basically if the riders feel it does something, then use it. Placebo.

Those Aussies will be challenging for the TDF polka dot jersey for sure ;)
