My wife has a rear Zipp 404 tubular in very good condition. It's a 2005 model (non dimpled) and was purchased from Victor Cycles in Brisbane. It has been used only for racing half and full Ironman. Bearings are good etc. She removed the Zipp decals as she preferred the plain look. She has a 808 rear now so this is a spare wheel not being used. If you are interested I can take some pics and send them to you. We are living in Denver, Colorado so there would be a charge for postage - I checked online and it looks like $35 approx (US dollars) from here to Aus. $500 Australian

My wife and I are renting our house at Graceville. It's 3 bedrooms, queenslander style with a double garage underneath and a driveway for off street parking. Ceiling fans and downlights in all rooms. It's on a quiet street with Graceville State School and parks leading down to the river. The neighbours on either side are great. It's very handy for commuters with Graceville station only 5 minutes easy walk across a park. Coles, Woolies and Indooroopilly shopping center are less than 5 minutes drive away and there are also excellent Thai, Indian and other restaurants only 500m around

Interesting design features, especially clean cable routing. As an aside, I'll raise the question as to the motivation behind Mitch putting the vid on youtube. Was it really to promote his new bike and major sponsor ?, or was it to start making his list of excuses should he have a bad race on Oct 11th ? More commonly known as 'doing a Luke Bell' ? In the past we heard fairly regularly the line 'but I work full time as a Dr' as a possible explanation of results he may not have been happy with. Since Busso last year he's been saying how well he will go now he's a full time pro. Ma

Well said Hiltz. Nice to see someone making an informed comment, especially from someone who's been involved with overseas development himself and knows a thing or two about what that entails. For those who wish to educate themselves about how Team TBB give back to the sport in developing countries, there are plenty of details on their web site. http://teamtbb.com/?option=com_content&...=view&id=51 http://teamtbb.com/?option=com_content&...view&id=270 http://teamtbb.com/?option=com_content&...=view&id=94 http://teamtbb.com/?option=com_cont

Here's the very very good interview with Greg Bennett. He talks about Sutton, racing to earn a living versus his desire to race in Hawaii, and interestingly about coaching his wife to make the US Olympic team, and how his goal is to help her go as well as possible in Beijing. Intelligent, thoughtful and it's noteworthy to see an elite athlete temporarily taking a back seat with his own career to support his wife. http://competitorradio.com/details.php?show=181 There is also an interesting interview with Steve Larsen recorded after Coeur d'Alene Ironman in June were Steve returned to

My English Channel Swim attempt Sept 11-16 2009 !
robbie replied to MindoverMatter's topic in Trichat
If you haven't seen it already, you might be interested in buying a DVD of 'Little Britain Live'. The stage show is so so, but the extra's DVD contains a documentary following David Williams during the 9 months that he spent training for his English channel swim. Show's some of his longer lake and ocean training swims, and follows him on the day when he successfully swam the channel - in a very respectable time ! It's available on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Little-Britain-Live-.../ref=pd_sim_d_3 -
