It's not a thread 1066 has been cheating on us with, t'is a whole new forum.

Is it cyclingnews in their short skirts or bike radar and their exciting younger models?!
Well in for a penny...
...once you've strayed, he's probably seeing them both at the same time.

What's worse is that I never suspected. Everything seemed to be going so well.

Can I get some views on mapping apps?
Heading off for a couple of rides this weekend and plotting routes based on a sportive in the area. Have mapped out a ride on MapMyRide but need to transfer it to an app that has offline maps. How do people tend to do this? Need something that will tell me where I am, and where I need to go, and can do it all offline (to save battery). I have used Everytrail in the past but their mapping system is a nightmare (particularly compared to MapMyRide that follows the roads).
Any thoughts?

Google maps?
Pen and paper? Write the route in a nice list of roads/villages/directions and tape it to the top tube. Oh, and look where you're going...
Bikely.com might be able to help.
I'm not one to be faithtful when it comes to cycling forums!
On the other one I (mostly) look at - the subject of Sky Team salaries came up and a credible source quoted Jonathan Tiernan Locke to be on circa 400k and team mechanics on 45k each.
For the hours they put in the mechanics salary is justifiable for 400k for JTL - crikey...

The story goes, that when Sky officially got hold of JTL, they screwed up his diet.
He lost too much weight and his power dropped accordingly.
Then I nodded off and didn't catch anymore of the podcast.

First second and fourth.
Not that anyone cares.

I do!
3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th that I know about.
That hill in the middle...I'd not try that even with my granny wheel. And in those temperatures! Madness.
Another brilliant stage though, I LOVE the Vuelta.
Christ, a 'nutrition' malfunction right up there with PDM's dodgy 'glucose' drip in the early 90's
It was definitely something like that.
I think they got him too skinny for a classics/Giro campaign, so he's been no good to no one all season.
If it's still on my generic MP3 player I might give it another listen, for you.
Although all my other podcasts are coming back on line now.

That was a crazy stage for day 4!
Watched the end of it on the turbo. With baby duties, I have taken to doing turbo sessions with the little one asleep in with me whilst wife and older mini-IL kip upstairs! She seems to like the hum of turbo and fan!
New bike build is progressing at pace - I now have saddle and front mech!

I gotta stop watching these things. So often I find myself saying "I have to go there." Some of them looked like me going up my climbs. There must be something wrong with my eyes/TV to because so often I think they are ascending yet they ride like they're descending.
