Interesting. Very retro! kevin

Hi all, I've just started following this sport after having riden on a local track and loved it; why is it that the riders have shirts tucked into their shorts at the six days? Do the shirts changed depending on their placement and therefore don't fit properly? kevin

Thanks for the links. Way better than working!

Thanks James, I searched the link on the Canadian Sears site and found it. They don't seem to acknowledge that the CDN dollar is up to 93 cents, so it's even pricier here! kevin

Does anyone have any brand or model recommendations? I know these things exist because I've used some, but I am totally striking out on the Interweb. And if mentioning stores, please note I am in Canada. Thanks in advance, kevin

I have both, but the cat's only purpose is to provide company for the dog. I heard a comedian once say that the difference between cats and dogs is this: If we were all 2 inches tall our dogs would still obey us. Our cats would kill us.

Sounds worrisome. I've recently signed up (from Canada) and had no trouble with my UCI package (signed up for CX) - but I sure wish I could see the GvA series as well.

Crappy old Shimano 545 pedals and awesome new Sidi Dragon 2 SRS Vernice shoes - as mentioned above, the soles are replaceable, and they look so good they actually make me faster!

Some of those sound like pretty decent reasons. I guess I'll have to shed a few pounds.

I'm not sexy enough to wear one and this is an honest question, not meant to stir any debate (like shaving one's legs, which I do): Are there tangible benefits to wearing a skinsuit in CX, or is it just "what the pros do?" kevin

I ride as a Master 2 in Ontario: Aquila Ciclo CX (a generic brand with Aquila decals) with 105 and Ultegra cranks. Michelin Mud 2 or or Jet (clinchers) depending on the course. (Pro 3 Race for criteriums (This is also my road bike))
