Ja nee, that's life for you....the world tour could really do with more teams that come from places other than the traditional euro teams.
I wonder how long it will take before there is another "African" team up there....
The BBC reported the assault yesterday Mark Cavendish: British cyclist assaulted by armed men during burglary at his home - BBC Sport
They really chose a bad (imo, snigger) picture of him for the article
I was going to use the European Xmas weather as an excuse until i read up about the origins of the challenge.
I'll give it a go along these lines:
"Graeme insists this is one challenge where it is the taking part that really counts: “I always wanted it to be on a social level, to go out as groups and explore new roads and new places. You don’t have to do the 500km. Why don’t you just do five rides? Why don’t you just have the ambition to go out"

Sad reality, but that's how life works
On a happier note, its awesome to read all the folks race stories and results, brings back memories.
2007 94.7 was the last road cycling event I did in SA albeit it undertrained and on a borrowed bike and starting in Cat PP, still managed to keep my all 94.7's under 3 hr's record intact by squeaking in with 2:59:35....definitely would not manage that now...????
Another issue is being the uk, the **** most likely will have a knife on him....
Ja correct, sadly.
A measured response with no physical clues (blood) left behind, a klap on the ear hole from behind while he is grinding will disorient the **** and leave no trace...
easy to say, which is why this type of petty crime is so popular, people just stand by and watch
For many years I’ve used cyclingnews.com for international cycling related articles, however for quite a while now it has become very frustrating because the articles don’t load and I often get a message saying “the page experienced problems and was reloaded” or something along those lines.
This only seems to happen when I use my iPad and I’ve never had this kind of problem with any other website using my iPad.
Anyone else experienced this and perhaps know why it happens?
Lol just love the interweb...... now I see a Facebook post from Gary Player thanking everyone for his 86 birthday wishes and then he gets on his treadmill to run wearing On shoes
Maybe they could be called One time instead of On....
i saw an article on them in Switzerland which mentioned there has been a noticeable increase in running injuries due to people running in On shoes, specifically the “fashion shoe type” that look like running shoes but are not actually meant for running.
When you look at all the other well known running shoe brands, the On philosophy is all on its own, imo for good reason.....BS

Anyone got a review or experience running in “On” running shoes that they can share?
