Yeah, although the last one I got was a silver colour, and a fairly metallic taste.
Although it does seem to be like an everlasting gobstopper! :lol:

I just don't think I could ever pull it off.
Where as the black Molteni, jersey, will one day be mine.

Afternoon. Are any of you signed up for the wiggle ride in Dorking tomorrow? Are you still thinking of doing it?! Forecast is fairly diabolical.

And can I use this post to profess my man love for whoever the inner ring blog is? If you don't know about it google Inrng, it's a fantastic website.

Sadly circumstances mean my sportive calendar is clear.
Is it the King Of The Mountains ride, I seem to remember the weather wasn't great then, either.

Come on Bradly today! Terrible reporting of the spring classics in this country despite our new crown as world leaders.

Not on this thread, there wasn't.
NSC the home of world cycling!

In fairness we haven't had a Spring Classic contender since Tommy S, and didn't have this year.
Although next year with Geriant Thomas free from track duties that might change.

I know but I'm labeling Paris-Nice and Tour of Romandie as spring classics (I know they're not but what else do you call them? ) And in Bradley we have a ground-breaker(apart from Simpson)
I never dared dream that Wiggins would learn to climb, today could be a good pointer to how he'll cope in the Tour

He's currently on a stunning descent.

The Spring Classics is the preserve of 1 day races, starting with Milan-San Remo, but predominately the races through Holland and Belgium, which ended a couple of weeks ago.

The 5 day stage races that are littered throughout the season, although fairly historic in their own right, Nice etc, they are mainly there to keep miles in legs before the Grand Tours.

LLS won took the 10 sec bonus and yellow jersey by 9 sec.

16.5kms ITT to wrap it up, tomorrow, that's not far for 9 seconds.

wiggle have a bad rep in some circles, but have been nothing but 100% for me.
Oh and Quality Cycle Clothing Delivered Direct: Prendas Ciclismo is definitely the place to go for retro chic and customer care.
They are top banana.

Another shout for Prendas here - brilliant service and some great items

I've used Wiggle a lot - normally they're ok but I put through a big order (parts to build up a bike) a few months ago and they monumentally screwed it up. It was more wrong than right and total ballache to correct. I still use them though - mostly for the small Haribo packet!

Any company who reply to an enquiry quoting, The Streets, is always going to get high praise from me.
