I have my KOM back and the ride is marked 'unflaggable'. Ha to the prat.

I hurt too much to sleep. I really should have pulled out of the all nighter.

Watching the Movistar series on Netflix has confirmed my long-standing opinion that the CANYON bike logo just looks really amateurish and tacky, the stretched, slanting lettering decal etc. is just shite imho. Would you want to spend that much on a bike with those graphics on it?

As you were. :thumbsup:

Not sure I’d be paying the bike much attention! Shame that in two series on Movistar the women got just a two minute slot in the final episode and that was about it.

You did well to get to the final episode. I didn't quite make it that far. I gave up after a while without making it to the end, with three suspicions seemingly confirmed:

1. Too many leaders in the team and AVV always gets to do what he wants.

2. Tactics? What tactics?

3. It's all about the team prize in Grand Tours. :lol:

P.S. Just look at how happy Quintana is at Arkea Samsic. A joy to watch now! I haven't heard Moto call him the shadow since :)

What was the all nighter? Dunwich Dynamo?

F**k f**k f**k how could I have nearly forgotten this


Riding home from work last night I passed a serious old lady on a green one of these

A Raleigh 16.

She'd had it for over 50 years.
I was so tempted to kick her off it and nick it. :lolol:.

Oh god I've got 'issues'.

A knackered blue Raleigh RSW 16, is on eBay for £50 and closes in a couple of hours.

F**k f**k f**k.

Before I open myself up to ridicule with its own thread.

Does anyone have any experience of Santander biking around London.
Any dos and don'ts I should know about hiking the bikes?

Going up north on Saturday and the weather would suggest it'll be perfect to ride from Clapham junction to Kensington, then across to Hackney
