No hopefully about it! Get yourself down there! :thumbsup:
He'll probably have the sniffles again and cry off at the last minute.
I don't actually believe [MENTION=16159]Bold Seagull[/MENTION] exists and 'he' is just another geeks second account.


Stat Bike is just about to get cleaned within an inch of it's life, which means 2 things:-

1 - My bike will be gleaming tomorrow morning
&
B - I will still be filthy, covered in unmoveable grease.

He used to say EXACTLY this about you.

The back is hurting a bit...:whistle:

How long we going out for so I know how many bananas to pack? (typically 1 per 10miles...). I'm in no rush tomorrow.

I have no idea how far, Pogue said [MENTION=225]Hamilton[/MENTION] was watching the clock so I guess he'll call the distance/time.


That's potentially a lot of bananas, is this you?:-

Enjoy the ride chaps. I'm sneaking out before a sky engineer turns up so I can start watching the racing again.

Currently in Uncle Sams half a mile from home, they are going to need to restock.

Good effort lads. Have lost all my fitness due to a string of colds and lots of overtime but back on the case now so hope to join you soon.

Be very interesting to see how Bert deals with the inevitable Astana and Sky attacks. He barely has any team mates left and yet again Astana in particular looks very very strong. I expect Kanget to be the first of the attacks again when the action kicks off.

I'm not a fan of Porte or Aru, so I'm rooting for Bert now, especially following his injury.

Interesting battle up ahead too with Betancur head to head with the young Dutchie.

Great racing yet again in this Giro!, attacks from nearly 5km out rather than all watching each other until the last km. Clever use of the ex Euskatel boys by Astana.

All this talk of sub-17! Didn't even beat the course record!
Yeah I know, what a lightweight.

I can't see him being able to ride with The Geeks, let along break the hour record.

True. I might up the mileage next week to see if I can get back to beating him again (well, finishing a close 2nd![emoji1])
Ah the good old days.

At least the boy Wiggins hasn't resorted to running and swimming. :kiss:

Thinking of getting a strada Rd 300 don't think I need a garmin gps as I take me blower with me. Any advice/words of wisdom?
Only my usual advise.
Garmin's are expensive for a reason, I've had my 705 for nearly 10 years and it's still bombproof.
The annual glitch is normally down to my fat fingers.

If, for some unknown reason it needed replacing, I'd sell a kidney to buy another Garmin instead of settling for something cheaper.

1066 will tell you otherwise.
