Thanks Johnny.  Very interesting.  If you find anymore of these links, please put on the forum.

No need to waste money on a wind tunnel it seems, just use a powermeter and the road or ideally a velodrome.

Or even easier idea, copy what the top pro cycling teams like CSC, Discovery and British cycling are doing, as I believe they all do lots of testing on Aerodynamics.

Position-wise everybody is different so I reckon it is a good idea to test this yourself, rather than just try to set up like David Zabriskie!

Wow, Scott and Nicola you have provided some very informed answers, thank you very much,  I can sleep well tonight now.

I will be eating my corn flakes in the morning.  If I have any left on Tuesaday, I will send them your way Scott. Smiley

Yes I think you are right Andy, the camel back is supposed to be the most aero drinking system.  The only issue is in hot races; you lose a lot of heat from your back and so the camel back can impair this a little.

But in cooler races the camel back is probably perfect, although you will have to go to normal bottles once the camel back is empty.

You have all been no help at all  Angry

I have 8 boxes of mini corn flakes left to eat before Tuesday, I really don't know what to do  Undecided

Have you looked into someone making one for you?

I'm not sure how practical that is at all, but worth inquiring.

I'd like to see any data you can find Johnny.  I think US Postal with Armstrong tried to have an internal drinking system on the Trek TT bike, but I think it was banned by UCI.  Not sure on this, if anyone can confirm?

I was thinking maybe what would be good is, aero shaped down tube and seat tube mounted bottles with a tube system like the Camel back!!??  Maybe something for someone to come up with there!

Are you sure?  Because they are made from corn you know!  And they always have very healthy looking people eating them on the adverts! Huh

Are you a qualified nutritionist?

I'm not sure. This is now the cause of some sleepless nights  Huh

Are Chaz and Dave playing?  If not, then I'm not really interested.

I miss nothing!  I love it! Give me more training, and nothing else!  Smiley

And there is too much food choice, we should have no choices, just get what we are given  Smiley

Fantastic!  I am now fully Skyped up!

Andy you were right, it was Norton internet security blocking Skype, so I disabled it just to log in.

Excelent, Thank you Andy for your very helpful advice! Grin

I think my Skype name is baylissstephen  , is that all people need to call me?

You have posted, Very important guidelines for any cyclist.  I am afraid as a group of triathletes, many of these rules are fouled everyday, I myself have even let myself slip and may have ignored some of these important guidelines Shocked

I will try to be better in future and encourage all Team TBB athletes to follow the above rules too.

Thank you Johnny for the reminder Smiley

Probably the most common question I get asked by athletes at races (some people think I have some knowledge in this area Shocked)  is, what is your race day nutrition?

Ok so fellow professional athletes, can you give us your race day nutrition, for Ironman in particular?

Mine is simple, water and gatorade, and a gel or 2 an hour throught the race.

Hi Andy,

You will definately get further forward on this saddle than the Fizik, I think the rails are longer, but also the the saddle is designed for you to sit at the front of it, Bella is maybe 2-3cm further forward on this saddle than on her old Selle Italia.  It is worth being able to try it first as it is very different to a "normal saddle".

Cheers
Stephen
