Are Planet X frames designed around guesswork of what should be aero and current trends?

Am I going out too soft? - http://app.strava.com/activities/71495831
It doesn't make sense to me that I'd be able to finish a 23:45 going uphill at 26mph+. It could be the method that other regular riders of that course have but I've previously had a 2min man catch me on the 6th mile only for me to pull away from him for 15seconds. I've also had people say that they've been catching me to the turn then can't make any ground on me afterwards.

^ This. And if you pick a lane on a road like that ride in the centre of it. Basically make it obvious that you're in the lane you're in for a reason and that you're not just wandering aimlessly down the road.

Unless I'm very much mistaken the 40% road in Harlech is a one-way street. Traffic flow being downhill rather than up.

It wasn't a one way when I as there 4yrs ago. I've ridden it in the winter, not that bad really. Plenty of run up before to get some speed up

What's wrong with taking out the rear wheel?

For outdoor bunch races I only used to use 49x14 - 92gi which seemed to be the same across the board.

Team sprint it depended where in the order I was. 90gi 1st man, 94gi 2nd and 96gi for 3rd. Obviously it depends on the rider but...

48x14 should be within reach for you laner.

Do you have other chainrings you can use?

Trace techno house.

What? That's like saying "I like Indy rock metal."

Not sure if I can be bothered to do the TT tonight. Weather seems nice but legs are achy from a week of silly commutes. I might do it just so see if a different saddle would make a difference as I didn't have time to test it on the weekend.

As for safety (third time lucky), have you considered one brake, and cycle training?

Have you considered cycle training?

You can't go telling other people to do things when you haven't done it yourself. Perhaps you don't think you need cycle training but then most people think they can ride a bike properly, even the people swerving all over the shop think they're doing fine.

Maybe core is the wrong word, I'm crap at valve terminology. I snapped the thin threaded part with the barrel on, but I'm not sure if you can unscrew the whole thing as I've often unintentionally done on inner tubes. I assume that's a removable core, which could be replaced by the core from another tube?

It'll be fine unless you need to use a valve extension. I snapped mine the other day so that there was nothing to grab on to, Turns out the pin is quite secure so you can unscrew the core just using that.

I would be doing it this year, but have already booked tickets to go to London for the week.

Foiled, again.

Being faceless is so internet.

It has a hole at the handle but the valve end only has the wedges.

When I did it it was 10hrs total but 6.5hrs riding time. That was on fixed too

Train back was easy enough, just went to the station and waited with all the other people who'd completed it waiting in turn. By the time I was getting on the train the station person persuaded the train driver to let a load of us on. And trains were fairly regular

^This. Mine got run over when it fell off my bike (poor installation) and it still works fine, just a tiny bit bent

There's a video?

The bodyless woman appears to have given him a shove in the right direction too

Yeah, I get 10 bags from my local post office then cash in a few months worth of coppers for a tenner. Lucky for my my local post office is 5 doors down the road. I don't think I could deal with carrying a tenners worth of coppers further than that.

They're meant to weigh or count them but the woman in my local appears to trust me.

ooh, the burn.

Not the prettiest as stock imo

But some potential -

Triathletes>>>>>

Shouldn't the number be on the back of somewhere kinda visible?

3 poloers, 1 mallet?

It was in this thread in the past couple of days. linked ofc

Being related to me was the best thing about otters. hats would be nowhere me to lead her astray
