What is the technique?

Hi again flatlanders

Any advice to what technique to use here?

Last night I took the trusty langster for a spin up newlands pass, at the very top I was close to vomitting. How does one do this with style and aplomb. Anyone know how to stay on and stay clean while driving the porcelain bus?

Carrots do spoil the clogs so, dont you know.

As my last post was so well recieved, I thought I'd give you some facts about me.

oldnortherner:
has had numerous tin baths infront of a spitting coal fire
has owned 4 pairs of clogs
currently lives with two whippets, one descended from a crufts champion
develops a rash when south of Manchester
could not live without hills
could not live with a dense population
has never worn a flat cap

i think you need to lose the attitude and just ride. :)

keep pedaling

HTFU

I fuckin love london. end.

sorry oldnortherner, but someone had to say it. :)

I was born in jesmond, and lived in ponteland until 2 years ago.

Damn you and your fast reactions. I wanted to say that:)

With regards to the queasiness when cresting a summit.

You have pushed too hard?

You have eaten and not fully digested said grub?

You are old and need to go to the knackers yard?:)

What did Mr Newland think of all this?

Or the altitude...

i have never worn a cat flap either

this is what gears were invented for.

that's bollocks about the flat cap!

get fitter = ride up hills easier.

simple.

if you ride your bike without a saddle it menas you have to stand up all the time so hills are easier. i had to ride without a saldde to halfords and back and had to stand up all the way there.

Train with your daags, they are fast as buggery

Fuck Halfords! We know better.
How did the reverse shimming go saxondale?

that simply mean you're overweight.

I vomited lasagne all over my bike when I was over 16 stones after trying to cycle up a very steep hill in the mist of Surrey.

now I can attack hill without too much problem after getting rid of the excessive 4 stones.

When I first read that I thought that you'd puked a 4 stone lasagne!!

Err.. not exactly. You can be 55kg, smash it over a hill and puke.
It depends on the effort you put in. If you're 150kg but have inverse shimmed gearing you could climb loads of steep hills without too much trouble - it'd just take all day.

inverse shimmed gearing

??

haha

:-)

nop, is negative external one what you need, promise, you can get them in Haldfors
