Make sure it’s the Right way up! Enjoy the build! 👍🏻

When I say back, I mean on the bike, he was away from it like mentally. If you’d followed his progress, this was a big deal! Hehated the bike, so to see him back on and enjoying it.. for me is a return in many ways, sure he might not go all the way to a Pro Tour position but at least his not a Froome who really should hang it up! Tom is the nicest guy who fell into the trap of Cycling Fame!

Yeah DONT support anybody with a bad rating.. they’ll soon be gone! Vote with your wallet…👍🏻

Yeah, Victor took it Farr away! 😂😂😂 It’s really just the fork that’s a killer, otherwise it’s fair, for say a Small size. Sure you can spec different tubing and come out with a different ride if you go fully custom. Do you recall Columbus once did the ML? It was basically every tube was shaped very differently and its inner profiles at the ends were varied. That I remember felt amazing from having both SL and SLX back then. Boa chi made them… has to be the best bike I’ve flown with on downhill’s, it was so solid. I’m a steel fan and if you go the other side of the spectrum with a full Cannondale which of course also was a different feel to say a top notch Allan or Vitus from back on the day. So when you mention Dave’s custom rides of course he will be using something in the upper range but I wouldn’t write off all tubing, some brands like Reynolds and Tange were looked down upon but they too had good stuff, and to further drive the point, remember True Temper? All these tubing built amazing bikes that completed at the highest level. So all steel is real in my eyes 😂🤪 if it’s going to get recycled and used again, dude it’s real from that point! I’m impressed that you do enduro with a steel bike?👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 That’s has to withstand alot of flex and abuse, but yeah there is a light weight weenie steel bike somewhere on the inter webs that’s pretty insane, I think If it was a sub 7! And that’s not water pipe stuff…🤭 Let’s agree we all like steel… let’s not discriminate, let’s embrace all tubing, not matter the size, colour or ethic sourcing. Let’s build a cycling culture of Steel Ubuntu! 😂😂😂

Hi, Event for gravel bikes? Website only has options for mtb tandem and e-bikes to enter? Possible to clear up the confusion please?

Steel is real… and since when are all bikes from China? Taiwan has a massive bikehub (free plug) industry ! 🤭 Actually they have some of the best frame builders on the planet! Anybody ever see the workmanship on a Farr? Perfect welds, but yeah we overlook them because we look down on local. Meanwhile, if I wanted the same thing say by a small in-house frame builder like Howler in the UK, good steel machine would set me back 2000quid! btw nice Specialized, that’s a regrettable sale if ever I’ve seen one! 😂😂😂 no free plug.. but that’s something special, unless you want to join the herd of carbon bunnies! 😂😂😂 ( there I said it). Did I mention steel is real, best metal for recycling. The planet will thank you.Sir.

Personally… I think he should quit, his body just isn’t the same. Riders generally never comeback to the same form. We have many riders who have tried, the list is endless and I could throw in a whole host of names. Froome was good in his time and I’d prefer to remember him for that, than watch him miss training sessions when his got injures that flair up.(again). We all wish for better days, but sometimes you gotta ego check and look to the future.

Great thanks, but I see… I already have a Mechanical! Those historical quiz questions have sucker punched me in pre warm up 😝. Talk about a steel frame with a little rust. 😂😂😂

Guys are we doing the Fantasy League this year on TDF Club Tissot? Bikehub slot?

… and according to them, gravel didn’t even exist? Not in the website, but we’ve hosted a national championship? How hard must it be to put the new discipline on the app and website? 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 But wait….people have already paid the years fees… sit back and do FA!

They not really an online store, plus they don’t offer courier options that I requested. So I’m my personal opinion, support your local bike shop and save the environment of excess packaging and paperwork.

Shocking… but checkout Zana in the Tour of Slovenia! He also went flying off the road, almost got a horse! It’s a dangerous sport and that’s the thrill of watching it… staying upright is all part of the game.

… could you please not mention Mr D on here, it’s kinda a sensitive subject for me. When the guy started this crazy delivery, we used to do it out of his garage… yeah, should hanged around lot longer… 🙈😬🙈😬

Oh do tell… must be a Welsh thing? 🤭

yummy!

.. I didn’t see GT completely comfortable… nee to hear his interview. That TT was brutal, the team should of ensured he carries a wider margin for that Greg Lemond just in case flip! To come this close… kinda guttered it had to end this way. Three weeks and everything falls on one incline! 🙈 All I can say is SRAM shares just dropped 22 basis points…🫣 He was so focused that it didn’t matter, well done to him. He could have thrown his bike like a few Pros we’ve seen over the years, so hats off to the Bees for leaving it for the final sting! And now you can take the “G”out of the Giro and replace it with a “R”! What an epic battle, thanks to one Belguim who decided it was best to leave….🤭👀👍🏻 I hope the TDF has this much madness… watching the “Breakaway De Gee-Rog ! (See what so did there<) has set the stage for the next showdown. Rome awaits…

Were are the brandy and coke manne?

I was waiting for that Karate Kid come back comment! 😂😂😂

Oh my word!!!!!!!!!! This is nuts. What the… 👀👀😬

I see what you did there… (2-4) If you finish and your are classed as No1, your hands no doubt will be on the Trophy with no end. To be honest this beats the TDF hands down in design! It’s a beautiful piece from a nation who has style. But you will take it home?

In the town or province… ? Asking for a friend. 🫣

Almeida Looking good, I reckon the old Dog GT will have his hands full with the youngest! Maybe it will be the TT that defines the final podium? This Giro is still up for grabs, I mean anybody can slip on a bottle between now and the rods to Rome. The Jumbo wasn’t all the bees knees yesterday but it’s did fantastic damage control. I reckon Sep could lead a team, he really has a good engine. I wonder if the team will look back and say we shouldn’t have played a waiting game of just 2 seconds to the Pink jersey? 🤔 Pity Cav hasn’t got any lead out guys, not many sprinters to contest the sprint today. I was very surprised how Milan got washed away! 😳

.. working “onshore” in “United State of America”… 🤭🤭🤭 Dude, time to pedal back to Skool me thinks? 😂😂😂
