Thanks,

I managed to finish Paris. I found it really hard. Between miles 18 and 22 it was a proper torture. I walked and had massive cramps from the little hills. After mile 22 I managed to run at a snail pace without stopping, last half took me more than 1/2 hr more than first half 1h:50min. Finished in 4h 04 49 sec, well slower than my goal. I am glad I finished and didn't end up in an ambulance, though. Tough shit

Now I am resting a bit and I will start training for NY

Same here those little hills were killers, good luck in NY and good luck to every one running tomorrow!

Just back in London after Paris.

I did not expect that to be so hard!

Training runs in winter do not prepare you for 20 degree heet... last 15k were agony..

Was aiming for 4 hours and all was looking good until about 26km then bam, undulating hills took me right out and I never recovered..

Cramp at the top of my legs and ended up doing the second half 40 minutes slower..

This was my first marathon and a fantastic / painful experience but next time i will make sure I am at the front of my time segment at the start. I must have wasted so much energy trying to zig zag between people...

Question has been pm'd

Dibs pending question.

Hey dude yeah 40 c-c sound cool, I've got a friend bringing me something to look at next week but I prefer a smaller bar so once I find out what size it is I'll be in touch!

40 or 42 would be great..

70's Dura Ace Levers added, well, once the stem and bars are sorted...

would also be interested in NOS giro d'italia ones

REQUEST!!

Looking for an NOS set of Cinelli Campione Del Mondo bars,

70's stock - originaly design before changing to having the modern cinelli font on one side

I have a set of the later ones but the finish is matt.
Thought this would work better but I have now changed my mind.

Looking to buy or swap for the ones I have.

Thanks!

^^ they certain are :-)

good to speak mate, lets arrange things next week.

dibs pending price

oi footandmaff, be off with you and start your own thread ;-)

Any heard about this smog coming to town? Apparently it's really bad in Paris at the moment, has any one run in masks before? Great timing for my marathon on Sunday..

Are you running a track cog and a road chainring?

Running my first marathon in Paris next weekend just borrowed a Garmin watch for pace setting, can't wait..

^^ hey skully i will keep that in mind! its a 48, I'm hoping to go up to a 53, any bigger and this is getting dangerously close to turning into an actual TT bike,

^ clubman thanks for the silks update, this is certainly going to be a dry weather bike, I describe it as a pub bike as it certainly isn't going to be a long distance bike but i think it will see a few flying laps here and there, it would be a shame not to put it ( and me ) through it's paces once in a while though.. then I can always go to the pub after :-)

dont worry Skully it's a joke, it's going to have drops on it,

I just can't fit the drops right now.
I was going to test the stem lengh with some cinelli bars I had lying around but as suspected they wont fit in a custom stem.
I'm going to ask a mate to lend me a 3ttt stem 100mm just so I can test the lengh and then I'll go up from there.

Yep clubman's advice will be headed and all will be set right right in the world, I am going to wait until I have purchased a bigger chainring as having to do each on of those little bolts up is a pain in the arse...

also you have to admit, it looks pretty funny with the risers on..

Finally before I get into the cockpit properly a quick nod of the cap to the hhsb thread with a slammed stem and cut down nittos :-)

Now the post and the saddle have made it onto the frame.
Really happy with double bolt / attachment on the seat post, compliments the saddle really well. It's not the lightest but then again nether is the saddle..
Its funny as at first I thought I wanted an aero post but now I think I would only go for an aero if I could get one with the same style of attachment. answers on a post card if such a post existis..
The saddle is a brooks swallow 2012 olympic edition, I bought it at the time as I knew the colour would compliment perfectly.
I'm a big fan of brooks, they're not the lightest but so comfortable, unfortunately it's been a while since I've had the pleasure due to Londons celebrated bike thievery..

you probably have to wait 24hrs after your first post or something but don't worry I'll find your email on your site..

and yes, bikes, beer and cheese is pretty much perfect.

^ PM me and I will drop you my email with a brief description of everything I know.

So after a beautiful day out riding I find myself drinking beer, eating cheese and polishing up the nuovo record seatpost. Not a bad day if you ask me....

The seat post isn't in NOS condition but I dont have a problem with things that have a bit of life to them, stops things from looking too sterile..

Bit a brasso ( the wierd chrome pad/cloth one not the brass one ) and the seat post is starting to look pretty good.

It is a 27.0 and I hope it's long enough, I will be able to tell once I get the saddle on.
