Doesn't mean a lot to me, perhaps the big boys can shed some light on it?

Another 8m on mountain bike with Mrs Stagger and friends.

Cavendish outsprinted by Pettachi yesterday. He just couldnt get back that few metres.
Armstrong looked very strong on the front for a while.
The Giro looks like being a good battle this year.
I'm selling my bike :eek:
Calling all bib-short wearing men..........
I have no idea what size to go for.
Im a 31" waist but since clothes come in even numbers im sure i could squeeze into a 30 since i guess they are stretchy?, failing that a 32.
But i have an issue with getting the height right.....im 5'11 ish but if i was to buy the bib-shorts for my height i'd end up with a massive waist surely......can anybody point me in the right direction of what size i should get.....please!

Those are the ones im after.
Go to a shop and try some different pairs on. I found some more comfortable than others.
Agreed - only way to proceed. Think legs on longs tend to be decent length so your freakishly small 31in waist shouldn't be a problem Al! ;):D:pQuote:

Forget doping....this is the way forward.......might damage your bike though.

Basso looked comfortable yesterdayand to be fair there was hardly any attacks on the climb at the end. They were just taking it steady.
Im going to put my neck out and say Basso will win.
What about Lance daz? Is he a spent force or is he saving himself / still getting fit for the tour?Quote:

Not saying he is a spent force but i did say I am surprised he has come back.
To be fair he hasnt had the best build up yet he can still hold his own in the peloton. He may yet may ride his self into the race ( get better) and go for stage wins but his real goal will be the tour now.

A quick 52 miles in the Ribble Valley this morning with 3 others and they made me go on the front. Over 2 weeks lying on a beach made it quite a challenging ride :eek:
Love this man's attitude:cool:
