Bump for this, Lifecycle do great stuff and Rob is a really entertaining speaker. Sensitive types beware though, last time I saw him he dropped the f-bomb within the first 5 minutes!

FTFY (SPOILER alert).

Sensitive types beware though, the bike he built is a monstrous concoction of steel, carbon and whatever hubs they had available at the time rather than what he wanted for his supposed "dream" build

I quite like Rob's bike. And he rode to the talk on it too. Graeme Obree was on the same bill, if he'd ridden there in the "Beastie" he would have earned my undying respect.
