Cav was spotted eating cake on Saturday in the Blue Egg, Barfield, Essex. His riding partner was Alex Dowsett.

Does this mean he's having talks with Team Sky? :D

    I don't use Twitter so don't know about that bit. Riding round here won't do him much good in the Alps though.

    His girlfriend lives in Essex, hence he's been spending every spare moment he can with her, and has tweeted about rides around Essex.

    The bizarre thing about twitter is you almost feel as if you're stalking people. Even although they're the ones putting up the information they want to share with you.

  • You can see him for real at the National Champs and Leazes Crits over the weekend of 24-26th June. If you are riding the Cyclone Sportive on the saturday you may even see him out training on the course :D:D

    "Impressive break"

    He was riding with Taylor Phinney yesterday, BMC next year?

    Ooh he's pandering to the whole rumor mill!

    He was riding with Cal Crutchlow a couple of weeks ago, therefore I can say with some certainty that Cav will be replacing Colin Edwards in moto gp next season :wink:

    He was riding Peta Todd the other day which means he must be becoming a Sun columnist.

    Or perhaps getting his norks out?
