Didn't see a thread, but RIP to Craig Khoury of BL. Apparently died of a heart attack whilst on the Tuesday morning group ride.

Bike fit comes out of my pocket, physio is sponsored by medical aid...

I made sure the bike shop threw it in for free when I bought my bike. I'm real cheap.

Like they aren't using the same or similar products anyway? Bringing it back to Compton, being popped for an anabolic is just bush league. As the UK sprinter shows us, SARMS and associated hormone antagonists are the way forward, especially if there is any aerobic component to the sport.

I like a good joke.

It is weird for a cyclist to use anabolic steroids though.

Something like that.

What impact would some "service" on a groupset have on the frame warranty? Surely the warranty on the frame, the gruppo and the wheels are separate things? Do think a frame manufacturer will not a honour a warranty on a catastrophic frame failure because the chain was stretched?

Yeah, banana bread I can do. Love it. Raw banana is too much. I had a team mate once who ate sliced up banana in a bowl with condensed milk after stages. The thought of it makes me nauseous.

You need to train your body how to go into ketosis.

You left off "tastes like dog-you know what". Maybe I have just eaten too many of them. I can't anymore.

Yeah, I dunno wh even dreamt up the idea of him riding the vuelta. That always seemed a but nutty to me.

Like we saw at world's (coming after the tdf) last year, and the olympics (coming after the tdf) this year, coming into these races with the Vuelta in your legs is going to be an advantage.

I also used to stick my mad out all the time. I'm older and wiser now (or something) but I'm a lot more relaxed about life these days. Or at least I keep my mad on the inside.

Come ride Riverfields. There's a gate with a snapscan code for you, that's it. Also, if you're passing a water point every 30km, all you need is one 500ml bottle anyway.

Sodium Bicarbonate. Just don't use Impey's pharmacist.

I dunno. Trek have that battleship grey looking colour scheme on some new bikes, I'm not a fan. At least make it a nice glossy gunmetal colour. Or stick to matt carbon.

I have a pair of arm warmers from Wish. They're about 7.5 cm too short, and about the diameter of a broomstick. Like elbow warmers for someone on a starvation diet.

I take it you've never placed a Wish order?

Those untreated shin injuries must have slowed your guys down.

Which van poppel?

Sure, but they show enough live of what I wanted to watch, and their highlights packages are well put together. Plus when that's done, you can watch all their other content which keeps the Chinese happy.

BBC iplayer...

I knew a guy who had a cannondale with this finish on it. Worst thing I have ever seen. You just looked at it and it had fingerprints on it. Honestly, you simply could not keep that bike clean.]
