As i'm A3 this year and very likely to uncompetitive in that grade i need something to work towards. I like training and intensity so an aim is always good to have.

I would preferably go road training but i'm 4-6 weeks off that just now.

Tell that to Mat Hayman, all that training for the Paris-Roubaix Challenge/Sportive, only for him to mistakenly line up on the wrong day.

He managed to save something from the day at least, but he’ll have to live with the frustration of knowing he might have won the sportive if he’d got his dates right.

If you commute in along the Clontarf track on a blue road bike then this might be you and the canine charioteer is sorry https://twitter.com/CitizenW0lf/status/973306040698753026

How exactly is one 4-6 weeks off road training as opposed to turbo training?

"Only do short 100km rides"

She can just fcuk right off.

How do you distinguish between short 100km rides and long 100km rides? Maths is so hard.

As in I can train away indoors but the risk factor outdoors is too great with the injuries sustained. If something was too go wrong I could do more damage while the healing process isn't fully complete.

I am also building back my ROM as my reactions would not be 100% at this stage of recovery.

What's he like responding to commands when you're on the bike?
I've met him before and he seems pretty laid back.

Just ten minutes ago I was browsing the dogs trust website and daydreaming of putting a dog in a Bullitt Bike.
The other half says I can't get the bike until we have a kid though.

Tried explaining that it would be a tax write off but she's not buying it.

You need to get a pet to see if you are capable of looking after a kid apparently, there is your explanation. I now have a place I can store a cargo bike, and a dog, just no money to get said cargo bike. Can I train my dog to sit on a child seat.

Not to be biased or unfriendly to those of a different nature, but I just don't think cyborgs or robots should be allowed out on bikes just yet.

Not me, but that dog could win Crufts with his eyes closed. Incredibly well trained. His owner posted a video where a squirrel ran directly in front and he didnt budge.

Carrying a frame on DB at rush hour, asshole behaviour but would they refuse me getting on?

Depends on the driver and just how full the bus is. I was stopped getting on a fairly empty luas was a small road bike that was wrapped in plastic and clearly brand new.

Indeed, Jan and Klodi's Party Bus - part III is going to be awesome.

The real pity is we never used "... part II: Electric Boogaloo".

will part 3 be in 3D? will i need to wear special glasses to peruse it?

Eamonnator

I think we should go for something completely different.
How about "Klodi and Jan's Party Bus"

That reminds me:

One of my in-laws many years ago went to see Sophie's Choice in the cinema. The adjacent screen was showing Jaws 3D. Five minutes into Sophie's Choice, two people walked down the front wearing cardboard glasses and sat down to watch. After five further minutes one turned to the other and said "I'm not seeing any difference, are you?"

magicbastarder

we did come across a place where someone was clearly a fan.

fear of the small ring; why are so many cyclists afraid of dropping off the big ring? i often see people who are cross-chaining madly from big to big, obviously not realising they've a front derailleur?
i've passed people on steep climbs, churning away at 50-30 or 50-32, seemingly oblivious that they have easier gears available to them.

That Veloviewer's Explorer thingy is making me do weird things.

So I have this bike, in this colour scheme:

I bought new cables from CSS that were described as green and the colour was not to far off what my bike has: (4th one over):

Alas it turns out the green is a Bianchi green. Functional me does not care but the other me is annoyed as I just would have got regular black cables.
