Tue, 24 Jul 2012 01:29:11 +0800

Thanks pete for organising the tipping. I would have to agree it was one of the more boring TDFs I’ve seen and it was evidenced by me being able to keep the lead and win by 15 min, easy to keep the lead once in […]

I like the dark kit and the original kit. I’m not a fan of white knicks but think the alternate design looks fine. if people feel safer in a lighter kit then have a lighter kit. In the end I will have three […]

Well done to all that raced, it’s a tough day. Thanks to all the SPR crew that cheered, took photos and chalked up Spring Street – it really does help lessen the pain.

So I suppose now that’s over no one is up […]

I did the same Lennie – got about 2 mins down the road and it stared raining, so I turned back and decided to jump on the wind trainer and got a good sweat up for an hour…so I’m not as grumpy as you are 🙂 Although you and Jonny shouldn’t be grumpy at all […]

paul commented on the post, sunday 12th june - long hills ride

Tue, 14 Jun 2011 19:53:49 +0800

That’s the first time I have done Canning Mills road and it is a climb that reminds me of some i recently rode in Italy, and being shorter than 20km in length, a lot more appealing too. Would be a good climb to do repeats on 🙂

Well done Davina you had a great race. I was one of the mad people on top of the Muur, words don’t do the experience any justice, the Belgians are mad! Good luck in the race today.

I thought we agreed it was to be known as “Toby’s Corner” since you have flatted twice there in three weeks?

I will be coming down. I understand it is one big dorm, but I could be mistaken. Camping is the best bet if you want a bit of privacy.

I always find it interesting to hear the views of ‘outsiders’ towards us cyclists. There now seems to be an acronym out there for a certain sub-group of us – MAMIL…Middle Aged Men In Lycra.
