Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

He's a pup and a pro - getting tired shouldn't be a problem. Coming down hard and/or awkwardly, seemingly every other game, ain't good, though.

Hey MoAlpha - Bike24 has tubed GP5k in stock for ~$33 each, $15 shipping. Seems decent to me, but I'm used to paying bleeding edge tubeless prices.

VeloNews, CyclingNews, CyclingWeekly, and probably others have gone to a paywall after 5 articles a month. Anybody here paying to read these sites, and if so, are the multitude of ads removed if you pay?

I do pay for GCN but the content on GCN is way more than these sites offer.

Anyway, just curious.

Wonder if the animal cops ate the donuts.

So, when you use a shipping service (like UPS or the Post Office) there is a fee for that service. That's how it works.
