Will probably go to Yorkshire as it's a day after my Birthday so that will fit in nicely, although don't know about London as it doesn't give a date (that i can see).
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

I'll definitely be heading up north, staying with friends in Sheffield for the two weekend stages. I'll miss the London one, a school day, and I'm a teacher.
It will be awesome, record crowds, fantastic atmosphere...it'll make last time in Kent and London seem tame.

Bound to be Monday 7th.

And Tuesday will be a rest day I'd have thought.
A TTT through London would be immense ending with a lap in the O2.
EDIT: A route like this Unknown road to Unknown road - Google Maps

Rest day isn't usually until the second week. I'd think 3 road stages then a transfer from London.

That is true, and I suppose with the Eurostar it will only take a couple of hours to shift everything from London to France. A quicker transfer than some of the drives they do around France.

Is it bad that from the headline alone I knew it would be Ferrari? The guy is more corrupt than the UCI.

Considering that you must be hitting summer right about now, that's very community spirited of you
. It hasn't been great cycling weather here for the past few weeks.

You're right - it was. Promised myself an afternoon ride after watching the cricket and the Asda shop (Sundays can be so exciting). But as I got myself ready, the inevitable happened and it started pissing down again. I didn't man up. I didn't go.

Thanks for posting. All but the first one applies year round though, doesn't it.

You can all mock me in July and August though, when it is -3 in the morning.

Morning all,
I have been following this thread for a little while, but now I have encountered my first real mechanical problem I feel I have something to post about.
The problem is that one of my crank shafts has started coming loose. I can tighten it back up, but then it just starts loosening up again. Does anyone have any remedies for this little conundrum? The bike is a Cinelli Experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
