    mind i had to take off the gatorskins, just too damn slippy! 28c randonneurs = win.

  • Yeah, it's sweet, there's riders in the big cities but none here at least afaik. Man, i've been reading that you guys have had a massive cold winter, I'm kinda glad I missed it!

    apart from being a tad warmer to the 30's in summer, it's sweet! dunno if I got to meet you in ncl?

    All the best guys, hope you get some decent weather!

    Lucky bugger - its Dave from Recyke, finally caved in and bought a OTP fixie so booking my appointment in casualty now ahead of riding it...

    no chance, i swear i almost died when i had randos on the back. gatorskins stay grippy in the wet, randos are barely even grippy in the dry!

  • yeah man, i was psyched when i found the newcastle fixed site last night, keep it up mate. i might get some of those toe straps off you too, need to get some new pedals sorted first though.

  • Not too sure how popular this film is or how many people have seen it, but I watched it with my dad when I was a kid, He randomly managed to get a hold of a copy of it on DVD and I watched it again the other night.

    Some really sick bike races in it.

    Personally I dont think the trailer does it any justice, but check it out anyway.
