Cant wait to see the set up to get up the Angrilu
So this 1x experiment doesn't seem to be going too well:
"[That's] probably the best legs I've ever had in a race and then the flipping bike just let us down again, I can't say any more about it, to be honest."
Just want to say what a privilege it was to be behind @MarkChristian8 today @tds so so strong., only to be dropped by mechanical no 4698 this season... This lab rat thing is now costing results. sorry again Mark!!

I’m guessing they’ll be on different bikes next year.Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.0 -

Fortuneo-Samsic and Look part company just before the Tour with no word on who will supply equipement going forward. This can't be good.0

Well Direct Energy have gone over to Wilier so maybe they'll use their old bikes....0 -
oh dear lolol bike fitters and mechanics will be doing overtime lololol
(if my french is up to scratch that is, it says the end of the partnership is with immediate effect and if i understand it, they wont be using the bikes at the TDF.) If that is the case, what a disaster for everyone concerned and from a sporting perspective it doesn't put the riders in a comfortable place.0 -
Yep, new bikes for the Tour. They say it's an amicle split but this can't be good for anyone0

Doesn't sound likely that Look have dumped Fortuneo-Samsic and left them in the lurch, must be the other way round, with a replacement lined up, surely?Warning No formatter is installed for the format0

Just saw the Fortuneo truck but, despite hanging about a bit, no sign of the bikes0

This should give the Danish commentators something to giggle about, as it's short for bra (literally "breast holder").Warning No formatter is installed for the format0 -

We’re deep into “we’re mugs who will buy anything” territory in cycling.
I mean cycling specific sunblock ffs.
Because that’s the only sport where you spend a lot of time outside in sunny weather.0 -

I use this Sun Bum stuff after I bought some randomly in the US, its a solid bar rub on thing which is really handy for cycling.0 -

Isn't it a fake tan product to make UK cyclists blend in more with our beautifully bronzed European neighbours?*

I think Millar/ChptIII went after that market; take Rapha type kit and treble the price for the mugs.0 -

Don't worry Rick they have you covered with their FAQQ: Does Pelotan work for non-cyclists?
A: Absolutely, yes. Pelotan works in any environment but is designed with characteristics that make it especially effective for cycling - namely it is lightweight, non-greasy, quickly absorbed, ‘once a day’, water and sweat resistant sun protection - making it perfect for a day in the saddle.
