That's awesome. There's an OR Randonneurs member who is 66 and has been logging his cycling miles since 1966 (the year I was born!) when he was 20yrs old. He's generally one of the faster randonneurs in our club. Here's a message he posted to the ORR message board the other day: I started loggin

I'm 5'11.5" and have a PBH of 91 and SH of 80.5 or so and ride a 64cm QB and it's big but comfy. According to Riv literature the TT length is stated as 60 but I swear it's longer. I imagine I'll part with it at some point, maybe even this winter. I'd really like to replace it with a Big Dummy. --m

Some raw video footage and photos from yesterday's Foxy Fall Century here in NorCal. http://www.flickr.com/photos/35176895@N03/sets/72157627903645108/ Saw a nice orange Ram out on the course, and a Rodeo that was heading the other way (probably not on the ride). --Eric campyonly...@me.com w

I have a Campy Centaur square taper with the 110 BB with a 39t ring on the outside that works for me. I have a Phil rear hub with the Dos Eno 16/19 on one side, and a 18t cog fixed on the other side. My 52 year old knees are sensitive sensitive to Q, and this works just fine. Here is a pictur
