You can’t and shouldn’t have the outside foot forward when turning. You should also use less handlebar more bike lean turning.

@qclabrat at 1 o'clock this morning I was saying the same thing, finally got him to sleep at 3:30. T'was a long night! No probs! I got a bigger deal with your bucket classifications!! lol P. S. did you ever dig them pants out and what is your inseam if you don,t mind. Should I with a 30" inseam be good with the large or would a med be good enough? What was anyone wearing today those that wore pants of some type? Thanks!

Toelap is really only possible in a small window (wheel angle wise) if the outside foot is not forward at that time, no lap.

It is something that I never seem to notice on the mtb due to the slack head angles. On the CX bike I feel like i'm riding on the front wheel. So I was pedaling early on the turn exits as if I was on my mtb that's all. This bike turns on a dime and leaves fifteen cents change, really quick compared to the mtb. And on a side note, boy them tires just look so thin!!

Just found them, they are mediums and fit great. Looking at the comments a 5'9" fella with a 31" waist thought it was perfect as well. Mixed bag, most wore short, some knickers and others full length base layer. Imo these would have been too warm today. Good for below freezing

I would have burned up if I had those on. They would have been great in the parking lot before and after the ride... but during the ride would have been a no for me.
I once had them on, on a 40 day for a road ride and I was miserable due to the heat after about 30mins.

i was wearing my typical baselayer both pants and shirt (underarmor cold gear for both). I intentionally err on the warm side for group rides since they tend to have a stop/go type rhythm to them and i dont want to ice up when we stop.

@fidodie Thanks for leading and videoing.

I had an Underarmour Coldgear base layer (warmest I have except for expedition weight piece), ss jersey and lined vest. I wasn't warm at the start (the wind was whipping in the Ballfield parking lot) and with the stopping and starting, glad I was overdressed.

I am riding with an intermediate group at Ringwood Saturday 9am. Open invite but this will be different from our typical OOS rides as it will involve a more consistent pace with minimal stops. Also no jokes or laughing is allowed. Gggrrrr.
