  1. Anyone know where i can get an aerodynamic, carbon fibre doona? Abby

  2. The heavier jerseys from Ground Effect are fairly
    warm. Used one alot in The Netherlands, and it
    was a damn-site colder than 7 deg. The longer
    zip at the front is good, 'cause you can zip right
    down if it gets to hot. Failing that, just wear your
    rain jacket.

    That's some serious engineering. With systems to back up other systems if they fail. Look at the feature listed after [censored] Flap. Sealed Cuffs. Essential if the [censored] Flap fails to operate.

    7deg C!
    luxury!
    our father used to make us stand in a bucket of ice before sending us out on
    our bikes in the hail to get 3 pints of milk and 4 loaves of bread (the
    journey of course, was uphill in both directions)

    I have to agree. I just checked the BOM and it says that it warmed from
    2.7 to 7.1 degrees while I was out for a ride this morning. I was quite
    comfortable in my usual - trackies, tee-shirt and a football jumper :-)

    But then, I did grow up in Goulburn...

    But that is work/training. I just commute.

    I use a windvest, polypro thermal t-shirt and normal jersey and arm
    warmers in cool weather (5-10 degrees). The windvest makes a
    huge difference.

    This morning I went wind vest, arm warmers, leg warmers, ear warmers,
    gloves, and under my jersey I wore a crappy army thermal shirt. Verdict?
    Not cold! But not sweaty at the finish either... what's going on? This
    is Brisbane! Where's my 20deg morning?

    Let me guess. It was 15 degrees?

    The tail wind was brilliant this morning. 3 degrees felt like 3
    degrees, because there was no wind chill, because I was basically
    going as fast as the wind.

    About 8deg, actually. Then there was the windchill, which is getting
    worse as the day goes on...

    Gotta remember dude, when you're this lean, you feel the cold!

    That [Tim-Tam] would be the Classic. Not to be confused with the
    Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate, and Double Chocolate flavour.
    (Personally, I prefer Cadbury's Doubles myself. Tim Tams don't taste
    enough of chocolate.) -- Faceless Man on ARK
