You're in Cycling Weekly - page 14. So am I!

Not sure which tagline is most innaccurate: "Swift: miles faster" (with CP pushing him to the limit with the second quickest time of the day) or "Downing makes it look easy" as he fails to reel me in - it obviously wasn't that easy! :lol:

    One for the scrapbook chaps. Well done!

    That's your second appearance isn't it MH (RP TT was the other one I think)? You'll be needing an agent soon.

    I had my email and a photo of my musette on the letters page of CW a few months ago. Closest I'll ever get to appearing in CW on any actual cycling merit.

    Where is CP?

    MIA?

    Out racking up secret miles?

    Crying into his beer over the fact he missed out on winning a bike by under a second? (I was 1.4 seconds off the Dogma - must not think about it, must stop thinking about what might have been - doh! :( )

    I'll have to pick that up even though it depicts me being slow :x
    Thanks for the spot and thanks to JG for the twitter heads up, just wish I'd been paired against Downing.. oh well

    I went to All Tomorrow Parties to pummel my liver and ears with Godspeed You! Black Emperors choices of bands.

    Back on the bike today and a gig tonight... the gym can feck right off though
