I think I also only paid like 30€ to take my bike on RyanAir. They were super easy about it, just turned the handle bars and put the pedals in my bag and shrink raped the hole thing at the airport (wasn't required then but I wanted to). I also had a B.O.B. trailer which they took without issue. More...

Shit, what an idea. A friend and me a few years back planned to cycle from Sweden to Gibraltar, Spain one summer but after doing about 100-120km per day on fully loaded bikes, we decided to take it a bit easier and enjoy it more, so we rerouted to the coast of France. It still took us about 30 days ...

In the States, if you don't pay your car, motorcycle, etc., then a Repo (Repossession) Man is hired by the bank to come and claim it. This one is bicycle specific...

Interested in also racing this coming Fall at Falun. H35 class.

Never been to Cycling but +1 to Jan over at Norvelo. When I looked around for our wheel building class, they were the first I asked and of course, welcomed everyone with open arms. Talked with them also about having a movie night there, and again, no problem with them (delayed cause of me not organi...

Hej Nolan, I've also like Arvid have currently three pairs of eggbeaters (2x SL and 1x C). I have also had 1 pair of Candy pedals when cyclocross was a bigger factor for me. The Candy's finally detonated after about 4 years of winter usage (axle broke) which is why I got the C models. Depending on w...

Very nice!

Hi Ana, Building wheels is actually quite easy and a shit load of fun but if you get it wrong, it's just going to bad news. Broken spokes, sloppy wheels, out of tune rims, etc., everything that already is going to make riding a fixed bike without breaks even harder. Think about buying the following ...

By the way, to get that kind of speed, it helps if you have a good cadence. Like this guy:

No, it is time that is measured but you could say that it also indirectly is comparing the speed (faster speed = quicker time). The Flying 200 meters by itself is not a competition but a qualification for the Sprint competition. Then they pair the slowest person with the fastest to knock each other ...

This is a list of the official times they started recording at the YA Arena velodrome: http://www.yaarena.se/890.php

Common guys and girls, we can bet these times!

Arvid? Telefonplan? Deus? Fredde? .... represent!

Okay, this weekend, April 24-25th the YA Arena are having an open weekend to people who have already gone to the velodrome class and are seriously interested in competing this year. If you are interested in racing on the track, they have 8 positions for men (don't know how many for girls are open) a...

Any news? Did you receive your package or have you contacted eBay? Just curious and I can maybe learn from your experience, not trying to be nosy...

Best wishes Sönke in the future, and I hope I can swing by!

Okay, how about May 1-2 or maybe the weekend after? Are you guys interested in doing a weekend thing or just Saturday or Sunday? Also, I haven't touched base with YA Arena yet so hopefully there is an opening... I just want to get some more track time in soon :) Also, I don't know if anyone is inter...

I don't know how many of you that joined the last Sthlm - Falun velodrome trip have made it back there since, but I am thinking it's about time to go again.

Anyone interested? Was thinking to go over a Saturday (best) or Sunday sometime in the upcoming weeks.
