Boardman SLR 9.0
Ok, I need this bike:
http://www.boardmanbikes.com/road/slr90.html
The only thing is, it's not available in the uk, even through the special retailers that are listed on the boardman website.
This is really annoying, as this represents an amazing value bike, just under two thousand pounds, and it has SRAM Force, Mavic Ksyriums and quality finishing kit.
Why isn't this bike available in the uk? So annoying.
Any way, has anyone got any ideas as to how I can get this bike, It's driving me crazy.
Sabotage
Looks like it would have hurt, not much info, no sound
One for the Road.cc news desk to chase up?
Replacing old crank on road bike
I have an old Bianchi with Shimano 105 parts - 9 gears
I would like to replace the crank with a compact (getting old ...)
any idea if the newer cranks (designed for 10 gears) will do the job?
how about the FSA components? do they work well with Shimano parts?

Broken bones
Playing hockey this afternoon, a stick wielding maniac managed to crack me the fith finger of the right hand (pinky).
An Internet diagnosis points to a broken finger:
Bone sticking out (not broken skin)
SEVERE bruising
Numbness and throbbing
I can't be bothered with sitting around in The Royal Free all night, so my dads taking me to a private hospital tomorrow morning.
I thought that I would turn to some faceless people on the Internet for advice; can I ride my bike with it?
Has anyone had any past experience with this kind of thing?
Route help - North Wales
I'm over in Prestatyn for the weekend at the in-laws, and plan on taking my bike. I'm thinking of a 30-40 mile ride on Sunday morning, but don't know my way around. Can anyone suggest a good route that will be follow-able for someone who doesn't know the area?
Alternatively, if anyone wouldn't mind an addition to their number as a one-off, that would be appreciated as well. I need to be back by around 12-ish in Prestatyn.
Cheers.
anyone had a genesis stolen?

Fantasy Cycling Question?
If I have created a league for afew friends, is there anyway I can view overall points in the league instead of just the points gained in that particular race/tour?
Hope that makes sense
