i just hold them under the tap to get water in them and just slide em on

How much was the training James? I have been thinking about something like this for a while

I am 33 now. Seriously considering this... I have only heard good things from people who have had it done. But I wear my glasses all the time and I like wearing them... They are part of me.

The thing is, sometimes they are a real pain in the arse. Cycling, snowboarding and diving spring to mind...

Would it be wrong to have fake glasses to wear sometimes??

it's a bit expensive though, isn't it?

Nice though

I once volunteered on an installation art / tv project that involved staying up all night and covering the whole of trafalgar square in cups of tea. You could probably find things like that to do.

mugs

ouch...

Facing 5 year sentence after stealing baitbike: http://www.dailytribune.com/articles/2009/09/17/news/srv0000006413460.txt

Check out the racist comments at the end... Sad.

The issue for me is choice of bike. Either very fast road bike (little effort, whizz through it compared to plod) or being able to carry stuff on the new touring machine (more effort, but greater ability to carry food and water).

I'm inclined towards the tourer, but the only time I've ever done this distance was on the road bike and at the end I still felt fresh. So that tempts me towards that. There were a fair number of feeding stations though (UK Etape + riding back to London for a gig = over 200 miles in 9 hours... but I did have London Dynamo support throughout).

I am thinking road bike. There are plenty of rest stops, so not too much cargo required...

Rest stop Km Comment
Hästholmen - 43km - The first stop is usually reached quickly. The course is lined with cheering spectators and there are few hills. Beverages and buns.
Gränna - 81km - A rest stop at Gränna Glasbruk with beverages, buns and bananas. A new beverage for many is blueberry soup which is a smooth and syrupy drink. It is served warm if the weather is chilly or cold if the weather is hot.
Jönköping - 109km - During Vätternrundan the worlds largest hotdog stand is set up! Mashed potatoes and sausages are served as well as bread, porridge and bananas.
Fagerhult - 140km - Beverages, buns, bananas and a well-deserved rest.
along road 140 + Splash & go rest stop - water only!
Hjo - 178km - Hjo gives every cyclist a warm welcome! Here cyclists are served a warm meal of lasagne and sallad. A new snack for many is pickled salted gherkin, a juicy way to get some salt. For those who feel breakfast is more in order there is corn flakes, milk and coffee.
Karlsborg - 210km - A nice stop next to the old fortress. Beverages and buns.
Boviken - 232km - A beautiful nature spot many look forward to. Beverages, buns and bananas. Bananas are always served cut in half, for easy eating.
Hammarsundet - 262km - On the bridge over the sound you can view northern Vättern and its beautiful archipelago. Beverages, buns and bananas.
Medevi - 282km - Medevi is the site of an old spa. Here on a summery meadow cyclists can listen to music and have coffee with sticky buns with honey.

I've just signed up!

Cant see the images on mobi..?

...my 6am commute to work across London's famous London.

my best advice is have a good search using the sites search function and google. if you don't find the answers to your questions, go to bikes and bits or mechanics (as appropriate) and ask a sensible question explaining that you have used the search...
