Along_the_Wire cheers, the likelihood of a 50 miler is prob once a year with mates, so not too fussed on that side. Just means I will be twice as slow as everyone else, but it’s all about the booze up at the end anyway!!
benson can’t stand indoor training. Too hot and it just seems so much harder - I find it difficult to get the same wattage. I go out in all weather and much prefer it
So I take it everyone is not surprised the ex Team Sky doctor has been found guilty of peddling performance enhancing drugs to the ‘‘cleanest team in the Peloton’ lol
Hursty They’re all at it - this is just micro-doping up to the legal limits.
Not hugely surprised.
It’s been a cracking classics season - shame about Paris-Roubaix mind, that’s always a belter. Giro starts Saturday - I know most people hate cycling, but for me with three Grand Tours coming up, it’s like 3 world cups every year - fucking love it.
Great bit-sized preview:

Dubman done BPW a few times with my bro, we just do vanping though
erik That’s sounds like a great idea. Saying that my van is full of tools. Maybe I could find some B&B’s and get some trail maps
yeah, indoor trainers are shite, bought my turbo 2 years ago and have used it once…… i’d rather be out in the elements than inside on a turbo…..
Dubman we got caught in bad weather one time and just usedAirbnb……. most Airbnb’s in that area are bike friendly too.
Know the feeling, mine’s full of tools too, Ali has a camper so we use mine as a bike store and sleep in his usually.

I haven’t got a garage either to unload my tools.
Dubman bummer, then again i put all mine in the spare room when i go away
Been looking at mini off road/e-bikes recently. They look like a right laugh. Thinking about pulling the trigger on a SUPER73-RX in particular. Any ridden one?
My van is full of tools whenever my family get in
Old-Dutch I assume no tools are left in the vehicle overnight?
I fucking wish mate
LOL

This has crept up on me big style, not really followed anything this year but a GT will get me back into the swing of things.
I take it Pogacar is still the man to beat?

The big guns are staying at home and saving themselves for the tour. Simon Yates, Almeida and Bernal are amongst the favourites. Shame, but it’ll still be great
Along_the_Wire Bernal not considered a big gun now even though he’s a Tour winner?
