Well, not this week - just getting over a bout of 'flu.
But perhaps another time I'll polish the titstanium on come along.

awesome ride today fellahs. good to put some faces to names, and also good to catch up with some old friends. hope to see you all regularly.

i have no idea why these guys are all laughing and smiling.

pentlandexile, i think i can speak for us all when i say i was impressed that your bike didn't crack or fail. future-retro is the new black. :P
vaeske, next time, can you organise eftpos and paypal please. your mobile bike shop is a great concept otherwise! :wink:
wazza, i bet you're glad i waited for you after the climb out of brisbane corso. :oops:
wal, easy on the ginger beer, mate. 8)
dan. get some bigger gearing. sprinting up hills on your singlespeed makes us all feel soft. :shock:

after our discussion post-ride, i will get a revised jersey design up tonight.
Monday night is the cutoff, so please decide if you want to go ahead with a jersey purchase before Tuesday morning and give me a 'yes i want one' in this thread.

here is the revised jersey artwork.
if you want one, prices are roughly $55-$65 depending on quantity, plus post if req'd.
we will confirm prices, then place orders on Tuesday morning, 4 Sept.

if you can't see the images, imagine brad pitt covered in coconut oil, on a yacht, surrounded by supermodels. that's how good you will look in this design. throw money at me.

Had a ball as per, big plus was elantra wasn't there to pull my legs off & bash me around the head with them :cry: , I even managed not to say anything too impolite about bikes fitted with brifters, etc. :P

I just may have to buy one of those new fangled electronic shifter groupset things & fit the servo's on my downtube shifters, a bit like the electronic sequential shifting on them expensive european cars :D . Oh & some more crabon fibber bidon cages :wink: , that'll make the old heap way faster, yeah I'm poking fun at ya's. :lol:

Just checked the sizing chart and XL will be the size for me :? although the numbers say 2XL, better a skin suit than a parachute :)

Hey, let's talk frames. If I'm to build a roadie I think we all agreed it probably shouldn't be onto the superlite :)

So - I'm after a 56TT, ideally with 57ST. And a fork.

What do you have? Budget is minimal...

You know those Mavic Open Pro rims we were talking about? Well the front hub I have is 28h and you can't get the Open Pro in silver at 28. :( Any other ideas?

can someone post the link for jersey sizing please?

here's the link for the jersey pricing:

http://www.cyclingexpress.com/cycle/cus ... esign.aspx

bear in mind that the discounted prices only apply to jerseys of the same size.
ie: 1 x small = $59.95, plus 5 x medium = $54.95ea

Wouldn't we just average the total order price? Chances of us all having same size next to nil.
