Rode it before work for the first time in ages, I'm gonna be nackered tonight. And it's a sad state of affairs when your road bike is dirtier than your mountain bike, what has my life become?

^Same here, for once I'm not aching somewhere due to riding. Maybe because I don't ride MTB anywhere near as much as I used to and am a way better rider than I used to be. Haven't had any problems with my knees on the road bike for ages either, used to be a constant problem. The only problem I have is hands and feet going numb on the roadie now its getting colder because my circulation sucks.

Got knocked off my road bike today. Fairly slow so nothing too bad but what should I check on my bike to make sure its still safe to ride? It's a CAAD8, think the forks are alloy steerer with carbon legs. Thankfully it looks like the only damage is the wheels slightly out of true, the guys car came off a lot worse haha. Road cleats can make quite the dent and scratch when you're trying to keep yourself upright on a car bumper.

I'm really really missing this again now. Wish I never sold it. Despite its dated geometry and flexy rear end it was still awesome, proper trail stomper.

Hmm I think I'll start wearing a helmet on the road bike now then haha, dangerous enough as it is without the added risk of my tyre popping. I need new wheels soon anyway so I'll probably just swap the tyres at the same time.

So I've noticed this is happening on both of my road bike tyres, some kind of thread keeps coming away round the entire tyre. They're Conti GP4000s. Is it a problem meaning they need replacing to avoid some kind of blow out? If so I'll be pissed off, cant have done more than 1000 miles on these!
