@Hamilton and I are now signed up for The Long One on 29th June, so come and join us!

You must be completely insane, I had a quick look. It's not just the distance but the amount of hills involved. That's not like any rolling hills I have seen. Have you got any idea how long that will take you? That would have been right up my street (not) but riding the capital to coast charity cycle the day after, a ride I would totally recommend to anybody wanting a slightly easier ride

Now confirmed. Brailsford knew he wouldn't be 100% and it had to be all froome.
In fairness nobody needed a crystal ball to work out it was all or nothing, and all was looking very unlikely, even before the Giro.


World Championship Time Trial?

We seem to get close to sorting something out, and then it goes quiet again.
Please can someone else do this, I'm obviously crap in a blinking competition, but worse with responsibilities!.
I'm just a bit bored at the moment, so I put out requests elsewhere for recommended manufacturers/suppliers, as yet no replies.

Blue, 2 (I guess we can't/shouldn't have 3) or 4 white stripes, front to back along the centre panel.

Whatever we can afford and get away with written, something along the line of:-

NSC Geeks - Team Geek :shrug: there has to be better than that, side panels
Northstandchat cycling geeks, small letters at the back.
Club crest underside of brim.

http://www.cycledivision.co.uk/customcycleclothing.php

Minimum order 25, £6 each = £150, £75 up front.

I'm definitely in for 2 @ £6 each.
In writing that I accept this is law binding, although any change of price will require a new confirmation.

23 more to sell, plus design and wording consensus.

Drop a line to Sussex Muddyarse. They got some custom jerseys done at reasonable prices a few years back. Can't remember who with though.

:mad:

Yeah, I did it last year as well...I loved it, so I'm coming back for more. It'll take upwards of 8 1/2 hours, but I won't be rushing this one (I've got no choice with those hills).

I will definitely want two of these.

Side Panels...I'm happy with NSC Geeks. All your other wording/design is good with me.

Anyone know what it would cost to send a bike frame to Australia? (random question I know!) I've my eye on a frame.
Buy me a return ticket and I'll carry it as hand luggage, for you.

Now if we were Americans this would be a piece of wee-wee, there's plenty of bespoke suppliers across the pond.

I'm not convinced by the link above, but I'll be jiggered if I can find anyone else.

I'll write to the Prendas boys as I have this beauty, and it ticks every box (although it does have a 'Made in Italy' label in it):-

http://www.prendas.co.uk/details.asp?typ=typ&fkid=39&ID=2385

I'll see if they'll tell me their supplier, although I'm sure ours and their minimum orders will be very different.
But Prendas might have someone up their sleeve.
