  • its the transponder all the riders bikes have on, they are behind the seat on most bikes...

  • felt ok after last nights TT having done 15w more than last week until I caught up with my new clubmates who had don 80 and 120w than me respectively!!!

  • Nope, that's a @Dammit trick. I don't fall for that shit.

  • I've tried doing it by hand but guess I'm not putting enough force through it to get it to happen. Anyway I found all my Cannondale tools (hallelujah!) and pulled the cranks off last night. Going to clean and reinstall them tonight and hope the problem goes. If not, then it's probably the bearings or BB cups which I can't be fucked dealing with - I'll just use ear plugs...

  • More power doesn't always mean faster.

  • I'm wondering how much grease/loctite etc I can now get away with. Loctite ALL THE THINGS!

  • particularly when the conditions are piss

  • Is there a motor int hat down tube! Space for it.

  • Lots of wasted watts wearing those cargo shorts though

  • Yeah but you can head straight to the bar after the race.

  • I thought it was far to big to be one of those. Turns out it's a Quarq Qollector.

  • Yeah, it's not that, in the same article they talk about the patch on the fork to help hold the timing transponder. It also has Quark written on it...

  • Anyone just out for a ride West of London tomorrow (20th May) might like to have a look at our Interclub 25 (Hounslow, Twickenham, Westerley and Weybridge) on the West of Windsor course.

    The HQ is at the Bird's Hill Golf Club, first man off at 9 am.

    The course is two and a half laps of a circuit using the A330, B3o22 (through Cranbourne ) and then Drift road back to the A330 near the Golf Club. The start has been moved from Drift Road to a layby near the top of Hawthorn Hill - a change which should make this slow course significantly faster since it cuts out one ascent of the hill, which many (including me) find tough.

  • It may be a small field this year. There was a glitch with the organisation this year as we (westerley) couldn't get confirmation that it was on until a few days ago, so I don't think we've got any riders.

  • I'm off to Wales again.

    Who knows about West London midweek 25s

  • Sunday is technically the weekend.
    Good luck!

  • I'm sorry to hear this.

    The Hounslow are not the organisers this year and I hope we would not have allowed this to happen.

    The field is not that small with 35 entrants - mostly Twickenham, a scattering of Hounslow and one enterprising Westerley.

  • Hot tip. The Acme event hq isn't at the rugby club it's in Hirwaun village hall.

  • I'm talking about midweek events. Pasquale was telling me about a West London Tri club running club 25s

  • 1.244 on mws whatever that means. 12C

  • high pressure, not good.

  • Customer got sacked and can't complete build. Said I'd try and shift some of his parts for him as he's got bills, kids etc...

    Anyone want a new tri rig stem (x one) and pair of omega brakes.? At cost, pm me for deets.
