    Question for female riders

    2014 Lapierre XR 529 EI

    I have the 2013 non EI version of the XR team, and I love this bike. If you aren't sold on the EI idea then get the model with plain out mechanical lockout, still a fantastic bike.

    Have the weather gods finally frowned on the fling ?

    It got too cold and my GU wouldn't leave my flask without some serious suction effort which made me light headed, so I swapped to individual GUs at the oval. The GU flowed fine when I was packing in 35 degree heat in Newcastle :-/. The jacket stayed taped to my top tube the whole race, I raced...

    Have the weather gods finally frowned on the fling ?

    Train had passed but warning signals on the crossing hadn't stopped yet, that is what I heard from one of the top elite males.

    Convict 50 Difficulty

    Unfortunately this is not the case in NSW where TAC doesn't exist. In Victoria TAC covers anyone involved regardless of fault, in NSW green slip doesn't cover you if you're at fault. Crap system but that's the way NSW rolls. However it's probably still worth investigating, that and whatever...
