it's an old professional riders trick... jus stuff it under the jersey...


i sort of think it doesn't really work as well here... because most of this happens in european high mountains where the air is too cold or there is a possibility of high humidity that the riders want to use the newspaper to soak up the moisture... now riders have very good inner wear and race jackets in the events of a cold descent which the team soigneurs will prep and hand to them at the top of the climb...

i jus banzai down the descent without anything... jerzey zipper open fully somemore...

malaysia is shit hot la... never experienced any situation so cold that i tak boleh tahan... pneumonia is definitely a no happen over here...

my worst day pun... pakai arm warmer only...the hands too cold and very hard to grab the brakes.

finally purchased my first road bike, exitway ergo logic 1.5k. i know u guys will say this is so wrong, well i did tried two bikes ones is  alloy frame with carbon fork (volcano brand) with shimano tiagra groupset. i tried on the bike and oh well, i am not comfortable with the handling and the seat, the shop owner already adjust the position to suit my body size but still i feel awkward and not comfortable, the handling was not up to my taste.
Then i tried the exitway ergo logic, when i sat on it, oh my, wat a comfort and the handling yeah, it feel right with my hand. At that time I was like, wat the hell? I paused for a second to decided which bike and i decided it because it is the exitway bike that my body feel comfortable with...did tried to weight yeah, the exitway is abit heavy compared to volcano frame.

And here my journey to the world of cycling start, and saving up for 10 speed groupset, the owner said can trade in and I think it is better for me to learn the charateristic of each part of the bike first before jumping the bandwagon of tiagra,carbon,fulcrum and the likes.

haiyah... why give yourself a headache la...

for me... supplements, pre, mid or post recovery drinks is something you have to do for long term one la... not just because you go to events and use it specifically for that event... your body won't be able to adapt on how it is fed to it when it is not previously used to it...

i heard some people who is not used to using powergel actually have problem with it and up to the point of vomiting... some people say it's due to the flavor... but i think it's due to how your intestinal track find itself absorbing so much glucose, sodium and watchamacallit is in that gel pack in a short time frame and then went into overload and cause some unwanted actions after that... it's not only about adapting to it... it's purely also about teaching your body to efficiently absorb and take care of the different medium that is used to deliver this needed nutrients to your body... you can't jus put it into shock at the very last minute...

same like altitude training.. you don't just go to the blardy high mountains for 2 weeks and hope your body will adapt to the thin oxygen and start to develop more red blood cells...  before and after that, you have to sleep in a blardy altitude tent for most of the time when you are at home or moving around just to prep, keep and sustain the level that your body is in...

same like girls diet la.. kenot just expect 3 apples for 1 day for 1 week and then expect to lose 5 kilos after that and never ever gaining it back.. wishful thinking la...

i for one got no money to go through proper fueling methodologies... i jus drink cold water as much as i can...

wah.. top 20%.. wishful thinking boh???

think the top end of the group in the previous edition did something like a sub 1.5 hour ride or something like that..

ROADKILL TO ALL!!!!



IT ARRIVED!!

is that the 65.1 dogma 2  ??? where's the EPS?

EPS!!! EPS!!! EPS!!!

looks like the next chris froome in the making 

you sir have sharp eyes..Yes! Jami brought in 4 of these from Singapore.

So how you guys did the standing up? just stand up and ride?

Wondering if the clipless pedal tension setting for everyone is tight(need more strenght to unclip) or light(easy exit)? For me i just put tension as light as pedal allow for to allow me to clip out easier.

got tax exemption? tak faham. can explain a bit more?

that rider in the poster, his ass kena cucuk dengan saddle eh? that has gotta hurt

tax exempted or not... losing RM500 is not going to go well with me...
more like hitting his gonads 

Magnic Light works with all kinds of metallic rims (normally aluminum, steel or magnesium). While aluminium and magnesium are not magnetic (but paramagnetic) they are conductive. Relative movements of magnets and neighboured conductive material induce eddy currents in the conductive material - in our case the metallic rim. These eddy currents have their own magnetic fields (see Wikipedia) which are absorbed by the Magnic Light generator kernel and by this way produce electric energy. Although there is no friction the absorption of magnetic fields has a minimal braking effect, so we don't get energy for free. Magnic Light contains the most efficient LEDs currently available (CREE XM-L T6) to get maximal light from minimal energy.
