Nobody does existential angst on a bike just in time for Eurosport Asia to come online, better than Tommy V. He's essential peloton furniture....a rare 100% loyal Pro Race poster. A poster boy for the community.0

Indeed when he retires they'll have a whole float made of his gurning face in the caravan before every Tour stage.
Oh god when is there going to be racing on the telly, normally when I need to procrastinate there's at least some cycling I can watch...Correlation is not causation.0 -

Sure it wont. If you're going to have a break like this, now's probably as good a time as any. He usually likes to kick off his season with Tour Med and Haut Var, it'll probably rain on that particular parade.
Says he hopes to be back for the Tour of the Med on the 13th Feb.0 -

Not sure if I'm glad or not, that place really confuses me...
On the shop side the staff are top notch at standing around chinwagging with each other or disappearing around the back for inexplicably large periods of time. Top notch at service...not so much.0 -
You wander in and there's a few cool things around like a Froome Yellow Jersey, some good photos, and some bike porn but then there is stuff that is just trying so so hard it's hilarious. Like they have L'equipe and Gazetta Della Sport in there too - because the number one thing Brits are good at is learning languages! Clearly they re just there to try and instil some unwritten cycling credibility. The Telly's are brilliant and should be showing all the Belgian CX on at that moment, but they re showing some decrepit footage of Eddie Merckx...again, Why?
I swear the espressos are the most expensive in Soho (bearing in mind the Ritz is just down the road), but I had a sandwich in there that was one of the best sandwiches I ve ever had
It's like walking behind two American Tourists past a monument in London who are discussing every part of it's history becasue it's older than 1930 when I did nt even realise it was anything special at all....
Just like Rapha clothing really I s'pose....We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

I was actually surprised at the price of their coffee when I went in there back in the summer. I enjoyed 2 coffees and a banana cake while watching the Eneco and didn't need a mortgage or even an increase on my overdraft.0

It's hot in Adelaide folks.

They were very polite when they brought me my coffee 45 minutes after ordering it.0 -

Bit cold by that point? Was it Iced Iced, Baby?0 -
