It says; " No jail for Motorcyclist who was provoked "

I like what the Chief Justice Chan said : 'Don't U know it is very dangerous to knock into a motorcycle because the rider could fall and run over by a car ? You see the accident.......Who gets killed?........It is the cyclists and motorcyclists. "

I need some advise. Since I want to spend some money on a few new parts (Roadbike/ Triathlonbike) and shoes, helmet etc., I was wondering, if somebody has a good shop for me.
Are there any recomandable here in Spore? Or do you buy everything online in in Spore or overseas? Or just drive over the border to JB? I honestly look for the best price since I don't need any advisory service in the shop.

I hope, you can help me,

I currently ride a Scott Speedster S5, pretty old ride and i wish to upgrade it already.

I managed to find a 2nd Hand Cervelo Dual Frame from a fellow forumer here hehe!

So now before i transfer over my parts, what are the things i need? I know i wish to change my shifters because its cap came off and its condition is quite bad. i do wish to change my brake calipers too. Saddle i also do wish to change! Should i just drive over to the bikeshop with both frames and then let them swap over the parts?

Also, are tektro brakes any good? from fusioncycles.com . Btw, my ride is on ultegra, can i get 105 shifters?]]> Tue, 17 Aug 2010 16:52:33 +0800 http://www.triathlonfamily.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10143 http://www.triathlonfamily.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=10124

This will the last season that we see Lance Armstrong at the Tour de France but he has been seen training in Kona and so we can expect him to be doing triathlons

Personally, this is good for the industry. He brings with him lots of sponsorship dollars. Trek has even invested heavily in the Speed Concept with is a triathlon bike... I guess there will be more dollars and more triathlon specific products and activities....

Well, those Ironman races are going to now sell out in seconds!

Anyone living in Serangoon MRT area and game for evening rides?

Rides start at 9pm and end at 11pm.

The route most likely will be thru Upper Thomson, Mandai and back.

I am suggesting riding together coz the roads are kind of dangerous, and its best
to have buddies around.

Thx.

I have a been using my RS800 for like 3 months and it give me so much headache - I keep changing my battery every 2 weeks and the HR fluccuates terribly.

I need your feedback on using Suunto and Garmin HR monitors.

I am rather concerned about Garmin as the wesbite says that the battery only lasts 8 hrs of operation. In an Ironman race, I don't think this is ideal. How about Suunto? Has anyone tried it? I am thinking for getting one.

Would appreciate feedback on using these training devices.

The UCI (Union Cycliste Internationale) has determined that the model year 2010 Giant Trinity Advanced SL is no longer in compliance with its technical regulations. This latest decision is a reversal of the governing organization’s earlier agreement that the frame, fork and aerodynamic “AeroDrive” components were all in compliance. This ruling pertains specifically to UCI-governed time-trial competition and does not apply to non UCI-governed time trial events or triathlon competition of any level. For U.S.- based events, this recent UCI ruling will be superseded by USA Cycling regulations —meaning that all owners of a 2010 Trinity Advanced SL will be allowed to compete in all domestic time trial events for the remainder of the 2010 season. More information on this U.S. specific ruling can be found in the link below: http://velonews.competitor.com/2010/04/ind...nt-rules_111180 As a result of the UCI’s decision, the Giant-sponsored Rabobank Professional Cycling Team is testing a UCI-compliant version of the Trinity Advanced SL. With final verification from the UCI, this second-generation Trinity Advanced SL may see commercial production and be available for sale for the 2011 model year. Additional information will be presented in conjunction with the launch of the updated Trinity Advanced SL. For those qualified owners* of a 2010 Trinity Advanced SL to whom this ruling will impact their ability to utilize the bicycle in UCI-sanctioned competition, Giant asks that you please contact the local Authorized Giant Dealer where the bicycle was purchased for additional information and potential resolution. * “Qualified owner” refers to original owner of a model year 2010 Trinity Advanced SL 0, SL 1 or SL 2 (proof-of-purchase required) who can show proof that he/she is competing at the UCI-sanctioned level (proof of current racing license from federation that is sanctioned by the UCI or follows this UCI specific ruling). To qualify for this potential resolution, the owner must have purchased the bicycle and made their request for a solution, prior to June 11, 2010. This request (with supporting documentation) should be made via your Authorized Giant Dealer. If you purchase a Trinity Advanced SL 2, SL 1 or SL 0 after June 11, 2010, a letter containing further information about this issue will be provided to your Authorized Giant Dealer. Please ensure that you request a copy of this letter from your dealer.]]> Thu, 10 Jun 2010 21:02:18 +0800 http://www.triathlonfamily.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9823 http://www.triathlonfamily.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9818

Bikram Membership at True Yoga, Pacific Plaza is still for sale. The cost is 100 per month and the expiry date is 8/8/2012. It is a steal as Yoga membership tends to be 150++ per month.
