@frank And rightly so! Yeah that first rain is a total bastard, went down one day on an intersection I have ridden hundreds of times (literally) in such condtions… »

@frank Don’t know why, but I hate the loud noise of the expensive/flash hubs these days. I can’t remember where, but I read an article where a rider joined some pros for a training ride. After discussing prior with one of them about ettiqute and style, … »

@mouse I’m glad, never my intention to annoy people would rather quit posting, tongue always firmly in cheek, and noted your post here on the YJA article. I too had a similar experience to you, which gave purpose to my comment here, was a tool driving a… »
@RedRanger Awesome! »
@mouse Sorry seem to have pushed your buttons somehow… »

@Kah I see, my mistake, also been across your project, which is to be applauded. There seem to be more riders around our country now, if I was to generalise, the people that seem to have started lately do tend to don the YJA, so that seems to be a big thi… »
@Erik Andersen I appreciate the danger, but it’s going a bit far saying the rules or article are trying to kill? I mean, you can’t hold this community to that, really? I understand where you are coming from but the Rules aren’t a life and death situation … »
@pistard Nah, thats just coz us cyclists love to bitch. We bitch about YJA, they bitch about you looking fantastic. It’s just how cyclists roll, right? »

Have the riders all been pashing each other or something, Twiggo, Hesjedal, even Wurf (excellent blog) been suffering from chest infections. Either that or they been sucking in each others snot rockets… yuk »

Never understood how offeded some seem by others choice of attire, I think I’d rather worry about when I can next spin the cranks than some other douche.. »

I’m no pro, but there is nothing quite like getting passed by a car at the top of a climb, then riding its arse through the twisties down the other side. »

@DerHoggz WTF is happening there, bongo drums on the nice aero helmet? Crack me up! »
@Mikael Liddy Congrats! It’s not manly to say, and never would have before having my own, but he is one beautiful boy! Our 1 week old is kicking our ass at nights (just need to HTFU!), hope you’re having more luck.. »

Anyone able to help out a pleb, what stage numbers and nmaes for the legendary climbs of this Giro? Stelvio, Mortello etc? »
@Mikael Liddy Boom! Congrats and good luck man! We had b+2 yesterday also, you can’t do anything in hospital, best get on the bike and get the last rides in before bubs gets home, right? Yeah, right…. »
@Pedale.Forchetta Can’t wait, you’re the best around mate! »

@Gianni I saw an add for Schwalbe Durano Plus tubeless, the ultimate tubeless tyre as unlikely to get a puncture? I hear they are slow to ride tho… »
@SimonH That thing is fucking georgeous.. »
@minion So drop the stem from 130 to 90 and go for it? It needs work, so couldn’t ride it. Set the seat post at my BB to seat height, seems fine. Cranks 175, like my MTB which I have no prob with, current roady is 170. »
@minion So drop the stem from 130 to 90 and do it? I set up the potential bike at my same BB to seat top and it looks fine. The cranks are 175, same as my MTB, current roady is 170. It needs work to ride it unfortunately. »
Just went and had a good look at it. It’s a bit tired, the front derailleur is worn out, scratches everywhere, but the price was right, this is the cellar i dwell in. Had a good measure of it, the centre seat post clamp bolt to centre of the bar is 65mm … »
@Steampunk Cheers, what TT length do you ride out of interest? @Nate Thanks heaps for your assistance, def sounds too big now, if you ride the same tt. Ugh.. »
@Nate 178cm, 5’10″ in old money.. »
@Ron Yes. I believe they call themselves hipsters. Dressing gentlemanly whilst covering oneself in copious exposed tattoos also calls to the irony you speak of. Some of it I think is cool actually, but I’m ironically trying to live my life, whilst being… »
