Cycling

The guy still has the potential to win the Tour De France. Everyone in the sport is guilty of doping, so why is he being singled out? Too bad, because he's one of the most naturally talented cyclists in the history of the sport.

I have a Bianchi Eros that I inherited but never use and want to sell. I would like to sell it on ebay but don't know enough about it to list it. What do I measure to determine the frame size of the bicycle? I will attach pics also for them to see. Is there anything else important I would need to mention about the bike in the listing? I am not sure the year either. Any help is appreciated!

Hi All, I am looking for some input from people who have a reasonable knowledge of mountain biking. I am a roadie but have recently ventured into the mountain biking world - and loved it!! I have a GT Avalanche at the moment, which is OK but I would like something a little more robust. I would prefer a hardtail with hydraulic disc brakes, reasonably tough forks (maybe Rockshox Tora?) and probably an alloy frame (not sure how carbon would hold up when I hit the dirt)

I have been looking at the Avanti Agressor or perhaps the Giant xtc2? I am looking at spending around $1800 australian dollars.

Thanks in advance for your help!

What is your favorite trail? Why? Where? Tell me about the trail and who you go with when not alone. The best and most enthusiastic description gets the points.

I've been cycling for 2 yrs now. I ride about 20-25 miles when I go out. I don't ride longer on account of 2 small kids. I'm riding my first 50 mile ride in May. It's a charity ride for MS. What the best routine to train for it? In the winter, I ride a stationary bike in the gym. Is that a good method for training?

My friend has this bike chain that he has had his bike chained to for about 2 yrs or so. He doesn't want the bike anymore nor the chain that it is locked up with. He also doesn't remember the combination for the lock. How do he get the bike off of there since we do not know any of this anymore. The chian its self isnt very thick so maybe we could do something that way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a former road racer (15 years ago) looking to get back into cycling on a recreational level. I'm trying to decide on a pedal/shoe system. I used to have Time pedals so I am used to the hardcore option of cleats and walking around like a pigeon. I would do it again (probably with LOOK), except that I see that SPD's with mountain bike shoes and recessed cleats look pretty good, pretty stable. I'd like to go ahead with this option except I'm worried that the SPD platform looks really small and I wonder if eventually I will get tired of the lessor foot support. The guys I ride with now all have road systems, but I'm all about comfort at this point.

My goals are recreational riding and maybe a doing a century one or twice a year, absolutely no racing (or even hardcore sprinting) anymore for me.

I am planning on buying a used road bicycle in order to save a few bucks. When I actually go to look at the bikes, what are key things I should be looking for, in regards to the condition of the bike? I don't want to buy a lemon of a bike, that has numerous problems, so I want to know what are the essential things to look out for. I also plan on giving them a test ride as well. Thanks.
