I know. You very quickly learn to lean in a precise way. I've done it twice on my mountain bike. It hurts more from a height. When it happens just relax and try not to stick your elbow out. :eek:

Yep... But if it's just for a trainer bike it's probably worthwhile. I have been umming and erring about changing over to a shorter crank. The telling factor is how bad do my knees feel after 100km , well they don't feel too bad. But if I was doing a 24 hour... I guess you could times that...

I have the standard Cruzbike bottle cage adapter at the back but when the bottles are loaded then there is drag, it would be easier for me to raise the cage so the bottles are more in line with my head. Still not as quite as good as Larry's but quite easy to test. Just mounting it up four 3...

Go tubeless... Gives you more time to react. I haven't had a puncture since I changed

Tempted... Super discounted price... No pedal change ... And still a lot of change from a grand. http://www.stagescycling.eu/shop/POWER-METER/CYCLOCROSS/Shimano/Stages-Power-Meter-Ultegra-6700.html

Feeling confident on the bike comes with experience and the know how to fix little things. It's surprising just what a few little changes can do on a bike. Certainly by reducing drag on the front of the bike helps a lot, especially if you can move the offending item to the rear wheel. Such as...

Well... It's what I might do to My Cruzbike today. I just saw a YouTube video about balancing up your wheels by placing a weight on the opposite end of the valve. Is it really as noticeable as that? Guess after balancing my wheels I might even be able to go 200m with no hands. Well I moved the...

Could you just get away with just doing this on the drive chain side?

I retract what I said... I reckon if you have enough float in your pedal that if you keep your knees in then it would be easier. For me I prefer to have a hand on things... The road surface changes quickly and I don't have any scratches on my V so why start now? "The other bit is to enduce...

I reckon if you have enough float in your pedal that if you keep your knees in then it would be easier. For me I prefer to have a hand on things... The road surface changes quickly and I don't have any scratches on my V so why start now? Mind you I might be open to a scratched up V20. So 100m...

I will have to give it a read. My father suffered with that one. Thanks (By the way... I don't know how you cycle on the roads in Prague. Gosh we have been walking here there and everywhere and by tram and bus. As James Bond would say "shaken not stirred")

Mark Sissons - "The Primal Blueprint" - Heart attack or not. It's not often spoken about but using oil in any diet is a contributing factor in heart disease. I for one, don't eat meat, but I do eat fish. At the moment I have a love affair with olive oil and an interest in everything else. I...

It looks like I am honoured with a star... Murcia in Spain has a star. Well that's the region I live in. :D

Put yourself on "The Primal Blueprint" and in three months you'll be totally different and the funny thing is you will be eating more and burning more.

Interesting video Bob, you must have spent quite sometime doing that, it's appreciated. It doesn't look like so much difference but when you think about the pedalling and the action on of the knee with acceleration, it makes an appreciable difference by the end of a ride in how you feel. The...

You can get them in different colors too. Got yellow ones but they are on the wrong side of the big pond. Sebring should be a breeze with those on

If the temperature dips down by another degree I will be going out for an evening ride, wearing that exact Jersey.

The Vite racing jersey has an interesting pattern on the back. If you sit upright on the Vendetta ... You instantly become the target.

I have one of those Vite Jersey's too. Love the zipper. Jersey is too slack now as I have lost weight but before I could open the zip with one hand. I have the credit cards / money sandwich in one pocket (credit card between money) and the phone in the other. I tried it again tonight... the...

What else can I say... Enduro XD-15 BB. You'll never regret it. Ahhh yes. Training with one foot clipped in. Very good for those finer momements. Well done. Congrats
