Jack Bulkley replied to the forum topic 2012 Giro de Italia in the group
Pro Cycling 1 day, 5 hours agoThe Giro is a grand tour and definitely more prestigious than the Tour of California. And the podium girls at the Giro are certainly nice.
But they are not as nice as the Tour of California podium girls.

Looks like a great trail system, Shane! Love the space on these trails. Course, I notice the big difference in plants, too. We have to always be on the look-out for a plant up called “Poison Ivy” – especially […]

Sure, I did 62 miles on Saturday, but I think I ”cooked” my legs more during tonight’s mtb ride than during those long miles on Saturday. Should make tomorrow night’s group ride pretty interesting.

Can anyone suggest a light yet durable tire?

for a road or mtb?

Hmmmm not sure if those two words should be used together when talking about the life span of a tyre/tire :)
I am presuming you are looking for a road tyre/tire after your earlier post rockclimber?
If so I have seen excellent results from Schwalbe Durano+ foldables.http://www.schwalbetires.com/bike_tires/racing_tires/durano_plus

Yes a wheel that will get about 1500 miles but not too heavy. Yes road

I only ride Gator Skins, so they are a few grams heavier, I race Crits and Road races on them as well as fast paced group rides, I have virtually no flats due to crap on the roads and usually wear flat spots on them after about 1500 miles or over use on the trainer. Plochman

Bike Wrench 3 days, 3 hours agoHi rockclimber and I certainly wouldn’t be moving the rear tyre/tire to the front, as that will possibly affect your handling with it being squared off/flat.
The rear tyre/tire wears at about the rate of […]

Bollocks! Signalling for a downhill left turn when I hit a pot hole and wiped out. Hole in my elbow, very sprained wrist and ankle to hip gravel rash. Anyone got any gravel rash care tips?
-
Tegaderm to cover the wound. Best thing on the planet for road rash. Arnica montana also does wonders.

Best I’ve got is ”take the pebbles out first…”
Sorry man.
