    All ready for a busy week in the office starting tomorrow as year end chaos descends. I will get to torture some numbers though.

    Just down at Waiitrose getting my free coffee and eyefull for the day :)

    Going to spend the afternoon attempting to follow Flanders, the cricket final and the Wasps rugby match. Not sure how that will work out.

    Is that the race where they should use suspension?

    Took the boy fishing today, in hindsight we should have left it a few weeks as it was freezing.

    Gonna crack on with a Sunday roast now.

    That and Paris-Roubaix. Too much flex and too much power transmission lost.

    SKY didn't figure at all. Gerraint and Rowe need to start appearing higher up the monuments to be proper 'contenders'. Kwiatowski will be another EVB.

    That makes her even less appealing than she was before.

    Don't worry, you are unlikely to come across her, other than maybe on the pages of a mountain biking magazine.
