    Retraction: Pereiro is clean!

    One of the best cyclists in the world, in a sport that demands great lung capacity, has asthma. Yeah - I buy it.

    A question for any Palos Verdes riders

    I usually don't stop at stop signs - I'll roll slow for a second, then "steal" the next turn. I don't want to unclip.

    Anyone riding an IH roadie?

    I wouldn't recommend asking the shop - you'd be surprised how many shops will say you're a 59 because they have a lot of 59's in stock.

    Somebody wanna buy me this??

    Made for Jan, but never ridden by him, or even delivered, BUT raced by some 50-something nobody? Sure sounds like a collectable to me! (I'm sure there are plenty of bikes out there that Jan actually rode.)

    Oil$$$ to US= $4.5 billion Island

    I was wondering how someone would work an "I hate George Bush" in this thread. This was an "expert level" one - well done!

    Century a month Challenge.

    Metric centuries? I can't even count the number of 60 mile rides I've done. (I never thought to.) 1,000 miles in a month is pretty hard for someone who works for a living - I'm trying to hit 3,000 miles for the year.

    College football season's over - I'm game. Are you riding them solo?

    Anyone riding an IH roadie?

    I'm running a 100 mm stem now. It's comfortable, is all I know. I really don't know all that much about fitting - I ask the fitter what to do, and do it.

    Anyone riding an IH roadie?

    No - it's because I've got short legs compared to my height (30 inch inseam) Because I'm tall, most shops will try to sell me a 58 cm - when I got professionally fitted, 55cm turned out to be right for me. my handlebars are about two inches lower than my seat - I find it pretty comfortable...

    Monterey? 20 degrees? Is that California?

    from the list of people that should not be able to reproduce

    I think it's funny that nobody can successfully rip off Jackass. The best they can do it smack each other in the face with 2X4's, etc. Exhibit A - the Dudesons.

    Maybe this is old...but for all the fashion bike folks...

    HA! Those bikes look like they put them together with garage spare parts. They've got multi-gear setups, but I can't see shifters on any of the bikes. Best of all, they point to the Spruce Goose as evidence of "wood is a good building material." How did the Spruce Goose work out, again?
