Agree completely. I have used Vittoria Rubino Pros for many years. They are excellent.

It was probably you that got me onto them, never looked back (other than all the times I'm looking back)

Glad to hear I've made a good choice.

Another for Rubino Pros.

25s are the best all round tyre, and the fastest, testing there isn't a lot of difference whether they are at 85 or 100 psi.

28s for comfort and more varied paths and tracks.

It was indeed!

Hmmm I have very tight rims, so the rubinos may be a no no?

Be a rebel, and go for what you want. The 4000,s roll like a dream. I need all the help I can get.

IME Vittoria's generally fit relatively easy and, again IME, Continental's are hardest.

I've just ordered some of the new Corsa Graphene 2.0

Anyone got any advice on routes between Brussels / Ghent / Antwerp? Especially in and out of the cities.

I doubt you'll need it, just a case of 'follow everybody else'.

Thanks for that

I've realised that's a bit of a shite reply, it's not meant to be.

You should find cycling a very very different prospect through Benelux, and considerably easier than here, with dedicated cycle routes aplenty, hence my reply.

Don't waste any energy on this as it's just a flight of fancy (basically means I'm bored) so is incredibly unlikely to happen, but I'm thinking of planning a circular route.

To Dover
Calais to Dieppe.
Dieppe to Le Harve
Le Harve to Caen
Caen to St Malo
St Malo to Portsmouth

Any thoughts?

Anyone else cheering in Carapaz?

Put some rollers in a ruck sack to prevent non riding on the ferries.

Definitely, seeing his bike and kit today looks like Movistar are fully behind him not Landa too. Nibali is gonna give everything to win this mind.

Wondered what was going on when I saw it on the highlights last night....bizarre.

Jumbo Visma need to sign up the guy who ran in to clear the bike out the way quickly though - Roglic could've done with him being on hand the other day

What solstice all nighter?

If you reverse that route, your riding with rather than against the wind.
