Re: Pavements, Cycle Lanes and Roads.
This act does not appear to be online but there are references to this section ie "Driving on the footway contrary to section 72 of the Highways Act 1835 72. Riding or driving on footpath If any person shall wilfully ride upon any footpath or causeway by the side of any road made or set apart ...

Re: How many bikes is enough ?
Two and a half. One nice bike (dry days only), one practical bike (mudguards, rack, pannier) and one collection of parts which is permanently attached to the turbo so I don't stress the frame in nasty ways on either of the outdoor ones. If I did MTB or cycloX or anything other than road riding then ...

Re: Pavements, Cycle Lanes and Roads.
Wheras cyclists are forbiden from riding on pavements, cars are not forbiden from driving on them. Um, in law or in practice? While I believe the latter may be true in some areas, I don't know of any legislation that would give rise to that situation. At the risk of resurrecting an RLJ thread, see ...

Re: Since when did 700c road wheels become difficult to buy?!
If you want cheap, I'm pretty sure Decathlon had 700c wheels with freewheel last time I was there. Not much help if you're not near one of their stores, I know.

Re: lent
As their commander I'd let them get on with it and do their job. If I were in the position of someone who could give them moral/religious advice (as the chaplain presumably was in the previous example) I'd give them the best advice I had, and in a culturally sensitive fashion (this of course is why ...

If I was regularly riding Audax events I'd definitely think about shelling out, but like the OP I would like to know where the money goes/what it's used for. Seeing as the entry fee for events goes direct to the organiser and is the same for members/non-members anyway (modulo insurance), where does ...

I expect there are many forms of interval training and some of them are better than others - certainly the usual recommendation seems to be that the interal should be balls-out effort for slightly longer than you can cope with it. Would suggest this may not really be tenable for taking turns on the ...

Re: Is interval training any good?
I started with L4, L5 and L6 intervals (do a google, it's a little technical) for an hour 3 times a week, and I've just discovered the Hour of Power, which involves keeping up a sustainable power for an hour with 15 second bursts at 130% of your FT every 3 minutes. I'm guessing FT is a Threshold of...
