The toughest part was getting there, straight into that headwind! The ride itself wasn't too bad, as the only open bit is up the A435 where it was a lovely tailwind. Luckily the rain held off. Falling off as I dismounted on arrival (crosswind on the bridge didn't help), then having to fix a sticky b...

Entered. I am attempting a new record having more than 7 riders by the end of the first week.... And having Niballi and Aru on the same team, what a ridiculous idea :D Well, after 2 stages I have just 7 riders, thanks to Anacona's no-show (oopss not paying attention) and Nibali's 'indiscretion'! So...

It's more than just the as yet unfounded accusations of doping that annoy me when it comes to criticism of Chris Froome - not that such accusations surprise me given the recent past. It's that in 2013 Sky did exactly the same thing in the first mountain stage as they did up to La Pierre Saint Martin...

Brutal crash yesterday!! When people said Cancellara was out because of broken vertebrae I thought they meant he'd aggravated his previous injury, not had a whole new one! And Bonnet, who went down first and got tagged by about 20-30 others, looked in a right state. In other news, I'm not sure if Fr...

Looking for a new bike
Hi all After my accident a few months back, my bike has been declared a write-off :( I'm therefore looking for a replacement. I'm after a full carbon road bike, after rather enjoying the Trek Madone I hired in Mallorca in April - I quite fancy an upgrade. Budget is max £1,500 (though I could stretch...

Still not made my mind up! Pollensa Park is out of the question at the moment as they are charging £85 a night. I've found a great-looking place for just £30 a night about 10-15 minutes' walk away so that's an option. Flights work out at £68 return with Ryanair (plus extras) so £300-£350 total for a...

Regarding B and C runs - as I've mentioned a couple of times on here I have struggled on each of the 4 B runs I've done since getting back into club runs. The first was understandable, as was the 2nd given the hills. The third one I struggled near the end so not a big problem. The fourth time was qu...

How exactly is the handicap worked out? Not sure I can tell from the above post. Is it a combination of age and other factors? OK so all riders start with a base time, which for this TT was 20 minutes. If you have ridden on the course before and set a PB (in the last 3 seasons) of e.g. 25:00 you ge...

Giro D'Italia (may contain spoilers or traces of spoilers)
Starts on 10 May. Quite a few top riders are missing so it'll be interesting to see if Quintana steps up, or if the likes of Rodriguez, Uran, Evans etc. can make an impact. Thoughts? The Velogames fantasy cycling site is up and accepting entries here . If there's enough interest I'll set up a league...
