You're lucky you even have two events. My official times from the Amashovashova, the Tour de Gold and the 94.7 still haven't gone into that database. Never expected better though (p.s. 1 was with championchip and 2 with winningtime)

Well I have good news and bad news. the good news is that I finally stripped my bike to find out wich bearing decided to die on me in the race. Turns out the crank bearing disentigrated. So I bought a new axle and BB set. Managed to get a sealed unit. Only difference was that the axle was 7mm longer than the old one. They dont make them that short anymore. but a slight adjustment of the the front derailure sorted everything out.<br /><br />The bad news is that I've more than likely got whiplash from an accident with my car this morning, so we'll wait and see what the physio says about me cycling. (oh, and now I'lll have to buy a new car.)
