    Orbea Alma - aka upgrade-itis gone mad

    Now that my new race bike has been upgraded to, and possibly beyond, the point of ridiculousness I figured I'd post some pics. :D I'm very happy with this bike, easily the fastest hard tail I've ridden. Original spec: http://www.orbea.com.au/fly.aspx?layout=bikes&taxid=70&pid=410 Current...

    VIC Santa Cruz V10 - Sold

    Item: Santa Cruz V10 - Medium - I'll consider splitting it as long as the frame and fork go first. edit: There seems to be some confusion about the year, I bought this bike in 2007 from the guy who bought it new and it was sold to me as a 2005 model. But it seems it may be an 04... either...

    Garmin HR weirdness

    I think I need a new battery in my Garmin chest strap, either that or someone has performed the world's first humming bird / human heart transplant while I slept. I'm pretty sure that if I actually managed to get my HR to 239 my chest would have exploded (my theoretical max is 185). :D

    Handy site

    This has probably been posted before but with all the talk of training etc I figure it's worth another go. gmap-pedometer.com You can map out and measure your rides, including elevations and mile/kilometer markers. And calories used if you want to get all scientific about your diet etc...

    I figured a new thread was in order. After months of work my peugeot fixie is complete, until I find some other part that needs chroming or polishing. Before and after shots here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/41513184@N00/sets/72157594234557403/
