..wondering what peoples thoughts are for 29er rigid? Your trails, I think, would be more rigid friendly than ours so I am curious as to how many of you hard men ride without suspension and what you…Continue

Hello Singlespeeders

Thought I'd let you know about the COGS singlespeed social ride tomorrow. It will be social, local and will probably end with beers.

I loved the photo - though playing devils advocate it is maybe a little busy with the city lights. Though I like the fact it looks like your sitting there with out a worry in the world as long as you have you lynskey handy.

Where have I been - new job working stupid hours, not to mention watching any fitness I did have quickly evaporate. I even ignored Morgan's ride invite on the weekend for the fear of having my legs ripped off. I'm working on getting some more bike time back.

Done - that was not an easy task on the old iPhone. Wouldn't recognize the link, so had to troll through and actually find it.

Purely so that he stops obsessing over this competition Sean has entered I said I would as you all if you would please vote for his photo so he can win a titanium seat post for his SS - if he wins it I don't have to buy one for him!

He loaded his entry photo yesterday and last night I figure he checked his phone about every two mins!

He says " To win the seatpost I need the most amount of people in the competition to ‘like’ my picture.
The picture can be found on the wall of the ‘Lynskey Performance Designs’ facebook page.
You first need to ‘like’ the page, then scroll down until you see the photo submitted by Sean Couley and then ‘like’ the photo.
My photo is easy to pick, it is the only picture with the Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera house in the picture. Taken by Christine and stunning!"

Clearly the last bit was buttering me up so I would ask you!!

He doesn't have the outfit for the husky here yet - lets just say it was inspired by an American friend we met at the Worlds who hates 'spandex' and is on its way to us as I type... :)

His crank brothers oh so sexy wheels have been great - much better than the first lot to roll out - i think he had to have the hub re-greased or something - I am sure he will come on and correct me!  But they really suit the bike.

Btw - that's about a kilo lighter than my Giant OCR road bike.
Comment by Jeremy S on July 12, 2011 at 12:00
I meant photos of the 100ker outfit. Though happy to look at that bike again.

Blondie it's more than a shame - it's an outrage. I was hanging for that race.
