I think if George & Paul are worried about not getting sufficient work-out they should be forced to ride their commuting / clunker bikes, better still MTBs ; - )

Training bikes are for training, racing bikes are for racing! The clue is in the name. If you haven't got a training bike - then maybe that says something about your training..........!

blimming ell can't anybody say anything on here without someone from the skys above knocking them

Markus for you information I've been training on my proper old banger steel training bike all winter long every day and every training ride, I'm now super strong thanks to that.

I'm riding my road race bike tomorrow because I need to test it out before next weekends road race as I won't get a change at all next week.

I'm not worried about getting a sufficient work out as I've trained enough this week with 3 chaingangs plus 100 miles

Paul, bear in mind Marcus is about as traditional as you can get! Don't let him see you without mud guards on either!!

I'll be on my race bike, for the pure and simple reason that it is also my training bike. (for now!)

How can we improve our race performances, both as individuals, and as a club?

Opinions please.

Through and off is good for strenght and when a break gets away and starts building a gap, but how many riders can say they have ridden a field off their wheel?

[Mulberry]

Don't worry George, I'll keep quiet for a while now.

Granted Paul our chaingangs drop people for sure and they're designed too although I don't think Keith is proposing a chaingang on the Saturdays. And we dont' tend to do chaingangs on the weekend either. NP don't have a forum - we tend to have quiet discussions amongst ourselves and play our cards a little closer.

As for doing what I say I would never admit to following my own advice either all the time or to the letter and although i've got a Brooks saddle there are people out there a lot more traditional than me!

Over and out. MRB

As a non racer I'm really enjoying reading all this. It sounds new, exciting and I think for you guys who are able to hack the pace, it will be great fun and I hope you learn loads and all become even better racers than you already are. I also really like the way that the guys from NP have chipped in here and in other related areas recently. It's great.

I can't wait to see the results of your new ways of thinking and working and racing.

Allez allez allez
