Craig Martin replied to Andy's discussion 'Bike Weight'
"Love the lose weight argument, why dont you just lose a few kilos? Well if I have a bike that is 2 kilos lighter, even if I lose weight, it will still be 2 kilos lighter. Agree if you can lose weight to a healthy level its great, but there is a…"

"Rode it yesterday with a guy from Sydney, who has not ridden Canberra before, and has just come to mtb from a roadie background. He loved it. I loved it. Bit easier than last year IMO, although maybe slightly more technical (in a non technical way)…"
Craig Martin replied to Noodle's discussion 'Average heart rate for races.'
"A girl who worked for me had a heart condition, and one day the ambos clocked her ticker at over 300bpm, at which rate the blood has stopped flowing, and she passed out. Is that 100%?"
