Think it's NOS stuff they've bought from another shop rather than put together by PX.
I feel your pain, I'm useless in the morning. I can't answer your second question definitively but I'd guess power is fairly absolute and if you're not hitting the numbers then you're probably not getting the same benefit. Guesswork though.
Total guesswork I know, a power meter would tell me I'm making no power but wouldn't help me as I know this from my average speed and if I do rollers I can't go as quickly.
Got to ride in the morning or ill end up working late or away. That or its a million degrees and blowing a gale. Best riding time is to head out about 9:30 for a few hours.
No matter how early I go to bed I feel knackered if I get out on the bike at 6am ish.

Me and my flatmate are hoping to go for a ride so I'll drop you a text nearer the time. What day are you thinking?
Sorry if this is a bit morbid but would anyone be interested in buying a Rapha & Raeburn Wind Jacket in White, size small? It is limited edition and quite striking. My brother bought one for me as a present in XS and got himself one too. As far as I know it was never used. I have no use for it and has no sentimental value to me so I think I should get rid as it just reminds me of the cycling we will never get to do together!

Tandem have been building frames with the Holdsworth marque for a few years now. They resurrected it in 2010, I think. The frames are current models, the steel frame in is about 18 months old.

I'm tempted to swing a lap around Richmond on my way to work tomorrow. Praying for a nice weekend, need to get some proper miles in my legs.

It's just a flesh wound. It'll weld.
It's steel, just get it welded. A few quid, rather than a few hundred. Ring your LBS, or your local garage.
its just BB that has some surface rust other than that the frame was ok!
used to flex like hell thohis bmx is long gone.. well the old frame cracked
the new is full cro-mo. This was his SS steelI suggested he does that but he was planning to get a new frame.. so a good excuse aye?
