I have a Blackburn minipump which I carry on my mountain bike at
all times.  It works just fine for what I use it for: Adjusting
the pressure when the tires are a bit low.  If I had a flat out
on the trail, I'd be using it as well, and while it would take
a while, I don't think it would be too painful to bring the tire
pressure up to 25-35 psi, which is all I need.  I have no illusions
about using it for a 125 psi thin road tire.  ...Joakim

PLEASE DON"T TYPE IN CAPS!!!

Landsharks are made by a one man shop, John Slawta. He is an excellent frame
builder and has built bikes for many professional racers.

Landsharks, in my opinion, are the best deal for custom frames around. 
John will build a bike of almost any type of steel frame, and will even
fillet braze upon request. You can also get an option with a Kestrel ems
fork for an extra charge.

You can specify any geometry you want. This means you pick the head and seat
tube angles, as well as choosing the seat and top tube lengths. Perhaps the
most enjoyable feature of Landsharks are their cool paint jobs. John was
trained as an artist. Basically he will give you any paint job you want, or
you can ask him to go wild (really cool!!!)

You will have to wait some time for a frame, but I think it is well worth it.

Typically, Landsharks are less expensive than most other custom frame 
builders. I think this is because of low overhead in Oregon, and he really
likes what he is doing.

I do business with a shop in Scottsdale AZ, Bicycle Gallery (602-998-8949), a
friend is buying a new Trek 1400 with bags and an areo bars for $725.  They
also will swap out gears, seats, handlebars (you might want drop-ins instaed of
areo bars depending the the racing you want to do, they are cheaper too) for
no charge, or for the difference in price if you want to upgrade.  They
completely rebuilt the bike when the uncrate it.  They don't trust the factory
to properly grease/adjust the bearings.  I bought a 5200 and two friends have
purchased 5500s, one is getting the 1400, and they are trying to find a 5200
for another person I know. We are all very, very impressed with their knowledge,
expertice, and complete dedication to customer service.  Of course the fact that
the discount heavily helps a lot as well.

If you are planning on racing the Trek lifetime warrentee for the original owner
will be nice to have.  People that really, really use their bike always seem to
crack the frame eventually.  It is not so bad when it is replaced with the 
latest model at no charge.  Given that it is cheap to ship a bike I would give
them a call and see what type of deal you can work out.  Ask for Dan or Allen
they are the owners.  Also please don't mention the $725 price, just try to
work out your own deal using this as a guide.  FYI when you buy out of state
there is no sales tax, and shipping is pretty cheap ($20.00 or so).

Bananas actually don't have much fiber, I believe.  Anyway, I stand by what
I said: fiber is a laxative, and I for one don't want to eat a laxative
while on a long bike ride.  It just doesn't make sense.

I believe the reason for putting a lot of bran and other fiber in these
bars is that everyone knows "fiber is good for you" but most don't know it
is a laxative.

As for a balance between absorbable nutrients and fiber, that may be
desirable in one's day-to-day diet but I see no need for it in the food I
eat while riding.

After reading all of this business on the net about how Powerbars and
other sports bars don't work, I _expected_ them not to work.

So I've tried the Kelloggs breakfast bars and dried fruit and all of
the other stuff.

But you know what? Powerbars and their ilk _do_ work better for me.
When I try them the only complaint I have is that they seem to generate
lots of steam with their power :-).

It's always hard to judge something like this because you are trying
to figure if you feel less terrible than you would have if you hadn't
eaten the Powerbar (or Exceed or Performance or Fin Halsa). But I
really do seem to get better performance from the sports bars than any
other substitute and I've been trying.

Fiber isn't a laxative, it is a bulking agent. Not the same thing at all.
The correct type of fiber is thought to 'scratch' the inside of your
intestines in such a manner that they are cleaned by it. Theory may not
meet reality.

Fiber, however, is _known_ to cause regularity because it retains some
moisture, bulks up and moves through the intestines at a good rate. This
keeps any toxins that may be present in what you ate from hanging around
stuck against and effecting your digestive tract.

Interesting.  Could you be a little more specific on the "a few" and
"enough" in the above?  If a cyclist uses fibars as their only energy
source during a 7 hour, 100 mile ride, while they have problems?  It's
my understanding that any solid food will take a few hours to digest,
so it's really only of use on longer rides.

However, they are hard to digest and if you eat more than one or two
on a ride they screw up your digestive track. Otherwise they are pretty
much superior to other foods.
