This may have been covered, but how do you get flagged? Does another rider have to do it?

^yup

Mont Salève looks pretty good. Gonna get cooooold on the descents though!

So it wasn't just me getting a code. I was slightly creeped out as I'd put a few things in my basket then closed the tab to find I'd received an email basically saying "go on, buy that stuff"

Also into the f+f!

oh dear. I'm a bit of tight wad at heart too!

As it happens I was searching around last night, trying to work out what club culture in Geneva is like. Getting my techno and funk fix tonight just in case!

I'm hoping 25mm tires will be ok

Rental prices are pretty horrific, is it the same for beers?!

Hopefully the weather conditions won't be too bad up the hills and passes by mid November.

The only people I've spoken to in person about Geneva have sort of raised their eyebrows and said it'll be suicidal on the icy roads. That said, they're also surprised I'm happy to ride in London.

Thanks though, I'm looking forward to it

I'm going to Geneva for at least a month and I'm planning on taking my road bike. I've never been and have no idea what the weather and road surfaces will be like in mid November. Anyone got any thoughts? I should definitely take my bike, right?

I was hoping it would be good and hilly. I'm thinking about getting some 25mm tires if the road surfaces are going to be a bit sketchy and finally invest in good jacket as I hear it gets really cold.

Thanks, I was wondering about road surfaces and weather through November and December. Pretty exciting!

Not familiar with the film, I'll have to give it a look.

Dredging this thread up.

It's looking increasingly likely that my girlfriend is going to be working in Istanbul for three months over winter, I'm freelance so I thought I may as well tag along.

Any good spots for road riding outside the city? I'm going to take my bike.

Lumpy. Looks good :)

I've just seen the event is scheduled from 9:30-3. What's the best time to be there?

Cool, I thought there would be, but it's not an area I know at all. I'm in good shape and timing wise was thinking 50 or 60 miles

I think me and my brother are going to come down and watch. Any recommended routes for a ride around the area afterwards?

Got a horrible feeling I'm going to buy one of these! Do you know a bit about the fit? According to their guide, my height makes me an XL but I'm a medium/large chest.

Has anyone tried/owned a Search and State S1-J? I've heard only good things and a friend of mine is going to the States next week...

6'3 and 78kg, medium is a good fit but I just don't even bother with the long sleeve offerings. It would be cool if they did some of the classic stuff with a longer sleeve option

I was in a similar position to you before going out to Italy this year and riding Monte Grappa with no real experience of long climbs. In the weeks before leaving I'd ride out to my nearest hill (High Beach) do it like ten times and then go home. It worked pretty good. But then I wasn't trying to keep up with Bert.

Ha! The pictures were taken right behind my old house

Is anyone willing to part with an old lightweight jersey in medium? I'm not sure about the current colourways

I rode to the Company Shed in West Mersea on saturday with a couple of friends.

They have an interesting BYOB policy

Hmmm... interesting development

Gave it a good blast and now it's skipping three or four sprockets at a time rather then going all the way through the block. Wouldn't that suggest there's an issue of gunk rather than something properly terminal?
