I'd rather be in a wheelchair than wearing anything with nike on it. or trek, or just any global capitalism brand with lots of marketing and 0 innovation.


oh please, I was just noticing Urtasun's shoes, not suggesting you to wear them.
I know it's a joke, but I wish you, and me too, never have to sit on a wheelchair.

ps. do you drive a Trabant?

The article infers that the failed tests were for cannabis. Whatever your views on recreational drug use, it's difficult to argue that using cannabis is "cheating". It's not performance enhancing.

I'd keep the cannabis out of this topic please, otherwise I guess many pages of OT ahead of us. :smartass:

Seems 241km out in front is not enough for the AGR organisers.


I recorded the race and haven't watched it yet but Van Summeran apparently

MOA then, like the "Rapha"? :thumbup:

Ok, I know. R&D, marketing and production are mostly different businesses these days.

I hope you are being sarcastic Kjetil :-)

One would hope and guess that either MOA or British cycling/Sky owns the rights to their most essential clothing. They seem to be pretty specific about how it is constructed in order to maintain those marginal gains :-)

Wheels look like reflex or open pro on da9000 hubs.
