    That would have been Rick Chasey :D

    Some crap examples of 'climbing' by some spectators on the easy way up Caetphilly from Thornhill. All the gear but wearing out their cleats walking :lol:

    Parking as bad as last year with cars half on the road on a crest with double white lines - won't do cycling any favours with the plod.
  • So - is anything happening in the race?

    So wiggo has a bad tummy does he.... Poor lamb. Hope it's not stress related from yesterday.
    Was going to turn out tomorrow in devon to pay homage to team sky, wiggo and cav etc. But to be honest if they can't be arsed then I'm not sure that I can

    You win Paris-Nice, the Tour of Romandie, the Dauphine Libere, the Tour de France and the Olympic TT but because you don't take your own country's king of the chippers race seriously you are some kind of disgrace?

    You couldn't make this up.

    Just been looking that the ToB tracker. Worked out who RC1 and RC2 was, BW was well down on those. Given you lot saying he's got a dicky tummy I though Wiggo was well down....... until eventually the tracker highlighted that BW was broom wagon!

    I take it he's not that ill!
  • The real Pros come to the front again.
    Crosswinds, echelons & bang!
    Remember that you are an Englishman and thus have won first prize in the lottery of life.
  • Lovely roads.

    JTL in the group of about 20 riders. Racer that guy is - Contador will get him for Saxo by the end of next year.
