Road Cycling

Just got out for my first 30 miler in 9 months. Felt really strong and maybe perhaps the first time i felt the bike was fully functioning since i got it.
 
Fitted some discreet cages tonight, had used one off my cannondale but it looked a bit shabby. Also couldn't find a blue that matched the bike blue. :(

Swapped the tyres around on Monday, the 23s sit nicely with the wider rim profile.

I don't have any american friends lol, Stages are crazy cheap over there, cheaper than vectors. Second hand market seems full of them, more so than Vectors.

Same Elite Custom Stealth cages as I'm using on my Diverge! Colour matching something slightly 'different' (like your blue and my yellow/green) is very difficult, I tried 3-4 before I settled for the black ;)

The main one is a facebook group page, search for 'Specialized Diverge' and you should see it, it's called something like 'Specialized Diverge Owners and Enthusiasts'.

Goodluck, I've failed spectacularly in finding one of them willing to buy me a SWAT box for $30 as I don't fancy paying the £100 they are in Europe/UK.
 
Rose are superb, I always check their prices on continental tyres when I'm buying as they're regularly cheaper standard price than UK website deals. Just be aware delivery can take a week or so and sometimes you have to pay.

Spotted a Specialized Evade helmet in medium with Torch colours on the Wiggle ebay page at lunch. Brand new, just the box is labelled KASK. Worth a punt for anyone looking at them, it'll probably sell for less than £100.
 
Another 4th Cat Crit @ MK Bowl this afternoon. Inner Ring (oval) only, one short rise 0.3m @ 2%, lawl. 45 mins + 5 laps. Very unstimulating circuit with a 40 rider field, rather than 60 last time which also had the outer gates open and was in reverse.

Should be fast at least... maybe even some points?... Ladies race will be running along side, 1 minute behind so might be some distractions to pass the time :p
 
I watched a mate's race at Hillingdon before. They also ran the women's race at the same time. Their bunch was too close to the men's bunch so men ended up doing something like an extra 5 laps before they called 3 laps to go! Must be so annoying to come round to the start/finish line and still see the same number of laps to go.
