Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Have you tried the VIDEO LOOP functionality of the VIRB? I got the same model and used it today with a 20 min loop. After a 1.5 hour ride, it did not record more than an hour of my ride and I have several videos of less than 5 mins each. Let me know how it works for you because I pretty sure it does not work (at least on my unit). TIA

Normal recording works fine with my unit as well. Did some research and it looks like the video loop is not working at all. Hopefully they fix it with the next firmware release (currently 3.9).

I've been on a tear lately since picking up my first road bike a couple months ago:

Shimano 105 5800 Carbon Pedals - $80
Shimano R088 Shoes (Black) - $104
Louis Garneau bib shorts - 2 @ $89 a piece
Assorted Jerseys - 4 @ $40 a piece
Front and rear flashing lights - $40 a piece

Now I'm just looking for the right portable multi-tool and the right computer and I should be set for a few months. And I thought I wouldn't need/want any of this stuff....

I got them for the Ceramic bearings, and not the carbon. Well that is what I would like to think. Came in at about 13g for the pair.

My first gen Red RD has crapped out. Bought a Force RD to replace it. They look identical.

Just bought this Rapha Winter jersey


Selling this:
Very rare Rapha Pro team jacket in chartreuse. Its an extremely nice jacket, but for my riding its just too warm or not warm enough. I have held onto it for last couple months simply for the reason that I didn't want to part with it based on its rare availability, but I came to realize that it doesn't do me any good hanging in my closet. PM me if anyone is interested. Size Large BTW

@lsberrios1....Cough cough....You need this to match your new shoes...cough cough lol

Yeah, I put it up for sale and have been on the fence ever since. It was never a color option that was available on their site. It's weird how Rapha has made items that get into circulation but have never been on their site, like the black pro team jersey with white sleeve. Was never a piece you could buy from Rapha but they have been spotted here and there online. I got this from a guy online who claimed he worked for Rapha and decided to sell off some of his collection.

Slammed on some new speedplay pedals, and dropped about 100g. Looking into getting titanium spindles as they are the cheaper version.
