Hi all Hopefully, I will be riding my first competitive event at the weekend (sunday) - that is, if I can keep this chest infection/cold/sore throat at bay...
No racing here yet; we are still under a couple of feet of snow, but spring is threatening and it is actually above freezing right now. I am hoping the roads...
Worst part of the 70 hours is only 1:52 of it actually involved steering the bike. Rode indoors a couple of weeks ago; for first 10 min or so I was not sure...
Got my 1st race on 28th March (in sunny, err actually snowy, Germany). Done tons of training (and none of it on a turbo, thank god), but cant stop eating...
Very reminiscent of Jan Ullrich :p Anyway, my first event will probably not be until sometime in May. Kinda late, but that's how it goes... have to settle with...
Hi I know where youre coming from on the cakes front! Give me a pack of 6 Mr kiplings bakewell tarts and watch them magically disappear! Thankfully I normally...
Jorin Yeah Lauren is doing great at 2 and a bit, not cycling yet though - but extremely strong for her age as Ive been dragging her out on walks up the hill...
Yeah, just about living here now - fly back every coupla weeks to see my wife and kids - means i get to bike as much as i want in between. Also means entering...
Ok... I have to ask. Just how heavy is a stone??? I get strange looks sometimes when I use kilograms over here... we may be metric in Canada, but most people...
Jorin its understandable that you dont know what a stone is, not many americans do either. 16 ounces in a pound 14 pounds in a stone 2.2 pounds is a kilo 1...
So whats the racing like in Germany? You hear a lot about France, Belgian and Dutch Kermesses etc, but not much about Ullrich's patch. I suppose living there...

Today Steffan Wesemann won a dull Tour of Flanders in which all the big stars failed to perform in the finale. From what I hear, they resurfaced the Muur de...
What a ride by Britain's Roger Hammond to snatch 3rd in the greatest classic of them all :-) Magnus Backsted of Sweden produced a fine sprint for a deserved...
Hi Bruce. Magnus is married to Megan Hughes of Wales and I believe that he spends a lot of time living in the UK. I seem to recall something along the lines of...
Rode first race of season yesterday. I was a bit apprehensive, having not raced this year or rode any distance over 60 miles for 9months. And going into a...
A few years ago there were numerous cycling "Clubs" on Yahoo. Some began to become less active. Then after Yahoo switched to "groups" they have nearly all...
As far as I know, this is the only group of its kind although not the only cycling club. The leading cycling club is full of chit- chat a lot of which is off...

But first we have the Giro d'italia to keep us occupied :-)))) Any suggestions of possible winners? Odds on it'll be another italian victor..... Why doesnt...
Here we go again - after Brad McGee won the Prologue, yesterday saw a stage win for Pettachi - could he become as good as Mario? - will he beat his stage win...
I am quite sure that if Petacchi keeps winning and winning, he'll easily be as good as Cipollini. Petacchi is still fairly young, and his speed in the last 50...
I thought that Pettachi did superb last year to win stages in all 3 tours - top man.Fair enough he only finished the Veulta, but I cant remember many riders in...
For Pettachi - time to re-write the script. How many stages has Cipo won in his career? 42+? And now how many did Coppi win? etc Forza Pettachi 11 wins and...
Pettachi sealed his 7th win of this years Giro out of a possible 14 stages!!! Admittedly this years field is weakish but the record is still to be admired. He...
