    Bought a comfort saddle, best thing ever.

    Only stopped using them after destroying many pairs of Knicks on the nose.

    Frosty Boy or Baked Alaska?

    I'd go for another nice Merino based long sleeve and a windproof front gilet. I've got the chipolatas gloves and also some sealskinz gloves. Another option is SS Jersey and Merino arm warmers with gilet. I've found Layering much more useful than just zips Having said this, temps in Adelaide...

    The future of Slopestyle (Mens not going ahead tomorrow, Crankworx)

    Comments above about $ reflect the issues facing many professional sports. Only the top 1% (probably much much less than 1%) in these smaller sports can actually make a living from it and even then, the athlete's money making years are very limited (look at Olympic swimmers).

    Any Zwifters out there?

    By trawling through all of the available "catch up" events I found Climb and Epic races that kinda fit in with what I could achieve.... but both on the same effing day! Got up at 4am to be warmed up for a 4:30am start "Climb" race - Smashed it with a 52:01 from the start pens to Alpe finish A...
