  2. I ended up with a 58 at the velodrome and I am a shortarse, long back short legs. Admittedly, I did need to drop the saddle down but felt ok on the top tube. Not sure if that really helps much. I am not Rangy! duncan

  5. re port glasgow school roundabout: seem to have moved the second drain cover to the side of the road, but still facing wrong direction fail!
  6. james, how long do they have to make good a repair? I would add the roundabout at the new school at Port glasgow, there is not a pot hole but two drains with slats running in the direction of the road, dangerous. The second one is also not placed at the edge of the road but on the cycling line almost a metre in from the edge. Bonkers duncan +1 for fill that hole
  7. Anyone know about parking. I see the website says there is no spectator parking. A major international sports centre with no parking. Surely not. Then again. Duncan http://www.trackworldcup.co.uk/Spectator/Article/1528/1
  8. yip, with Fraser and Jamie. looking forward to it duncan
  9. billy sorry beavers took longer than expected. what did I miss? duncan
  10. How long do you think you will be there? I have to go to a beaver award (scouts that's is) for my younger son but could come along a bit later if you are still there. Duncan
  11. PAH, THAT'S NOTHING! At last weekends (shh, Triathlon) fellow racer avoided common approach of mtb and went for cross bike Carbon trek, 60mm carbon tubs, carbon bars and stem, topped off with Ultegra Di2 Imagine stacking that
  12. I like it is that photoshopped or real? duncan
  13. cropped for those of a nervous disposition http://www.flickr.com/photos/87089645@N04/ Mul, you should have listened to Kenny..
  14. Billy, whats this heart rate app nonsense? Thomson and McLean will set up a boutique surgery and take your heart rate by the laying on of hands (healing, no less) No need to thank me, fifty guineas should cover it. Please form an orderly queue Duncan
  15. ha, sorry, yip more tri nonsense Craggy Island tri, swom from mainland to Kererra just south of Oban. Trying to put media reports of a 7 foot long Porbeagle shark attacking a fishermans foot just round the corner in Islay http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=islay%20%2B%20porbeagle&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCMQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.co.uk%2F2012%2F09%2F01%2Fshark-attacks-fisherman-in-islay-scotland_n_1848573.html&ei=b_9MUKefCuqh0QXTxIC4Cg&usg=AFQjCNFOg-yqeO-UZz-D744VQx4sbQrf9A&sig2=aaqnv6jm-y0UliE_QmvtbA Anyway, no sharks but cold swim and very hilly mountain bike Oh no, MTB as if Triathlon wasn't bad enough, it gets worse, do I need to resign as a wheeler? then a daft run, untracked moorland up to 400foot mountain and back 8k. finished 53rd out of... I have no idea but top half I think. duncan ps. Did I say i am doing a tri next weekend too, Canadian canoe and more mountain biking
  16. billy keen to do this, but I will be doing swimming and running with callanetics for core each week and may find it difficult to find the time anywhere for lots of weights but will do some. just want to admit to it before start duncan
  17. Stephen, HI, how are you doing? My son has a islabike Benin 24 which is what Kenny is selling I think. He is 10 and is getting a bit big for it although it should last till next year. I am not sure how tall he is but possibly slightly shorter than 140. Think you need something bigger. The benin is set up as a mountain/ cross/ general purpose bike with straight bars. If looking for a drop bar road bike then better with a luath islabike or dawes. 26inch wheels probably what you need. The islabikes are superb, hold thier value really well and loads of the jets have them almost without any problems. I have had three of them and would look to get another as the boys get older.They are more expensive but in this instance you get what you pay for. just my tuppence worth cheers duncan
  18. billy, happy to go with majority view tapas or curry
