Had a weak moment and picked up a Stages (for Turbo use, 4iiii out on the road). Both left hand crank arms, how would you compare them?
My current plan is to do a couple of rides on each dual recording alongside my Smart trainer, but as I've found that so variable recently I'd wondering how else I could do it. 2x 5-10 minute climbs 'paced' by HR with the same 'effort' on similar days? 2 loops of the same 10-15 mile route/circuit?
I've been dual recording a week or two the 4iiii after a few issues trying to get my Flux to settle stabilise after some issues. Still not there yet (235W vs 252W on a 1hr 45m race). Have heard Golden Cheatah can do comparisons but can't figure it out to compare 2 power graphs alongside... DCR has a tool but think you have to pay/subscribe to it? Anything else anyone has seen?
Ankle socks are a definite
Talk about going too far! I dread to think what you actually do in the hot weather?! NSFW?!
Even when I was heading out in the 30+ degrees rides last year/year before, I had arm warmers and usually a light gilet on...
Still a quality kit though.
HAha yeah I think we all realised it's all publicity, but maybe many hadn't realised why they got fined for the Palace kit. But then they're probably the ones sill buying the jerseys for £400 on ebay. Saw a pair of the socks sell a week or so ago for £65. Crazy.
Yes.. my suitable bag solution is a motorcycle tail pack until I sort some panniers and tail pack. Quite like the idea of this Lomo:

As a firm believer in the posterior man satchel and advocate of carrying kitchen sinks, I fully endorse your tail pack.
I'd just go up the right hand side and stop before the last van to avoid passing the solid white line (technically a red light contravention). This is just some of the behaviour that irks car drivers.
Same, for me I'd use the centre if I *had* to get to the front. But if just riding for pleasure I'd sit in traffic. These days I'm less worried about being 'first' and won't take risks for it (lets be honest those narrow gaps there are a risk if the lights suddenly change!), I much prefer to be 'seen' and considered part of traffic. So I'd join that queue in a primary position without overtaking anything. Only times I'd move up would be in heavy traffic when doing lots of filtering (then I'd use the right hand side due to how narrow things are on the left).
105 chainring on ultegra spider? That's what I did. You can see how weird it looks above
Looks perfectly fine!
Just don't put that pic on your CV
Glad the monstrosity of the QR is done for the aesthetics of the rear tyre. WTF
Not quite sure I see what's wrong with the QR being in that position?
But you're a Triantilope.
