  1. Its not really bike related (until I load Strava...)
  2. Before the Tour Koen de Kort had been teasing his teammate Marcel Kittel about his haircut. But in a bet, de Kort said he would get his haircut the same way as Kittel if the latter won three stages at the Tour. With Kittel notching up his third win on stage 12 de Kort stayed true to his word, getting his hair cut on the second rest day. At the Argos-Shimano bus this morning de Kort was surrounded by the media while Kittel rode away to sign-on with no attention from the press at all. http://cyclingtips.com.au/2013/07/chasing-le-tour-costa-wins-froome-avoids-crash/
  3. I don't know if this has been discussed yet, but does anyone else think that Cavendish has lost his edge? I mean, he left Sky last year in a big huff because their green jersey aspirations didn't match his, so here he is with a whole team dedicated to him and he doesn't seem to be doing any better. Are the other just better? Or has the whole team and lead-out not reached full potential yet? Your thoughts?
  4. To fuel my Hope fetish

  8. 2014 Rocky Mountain Instinct MSL 29er
  9. Car accident with some paint samples?
  10. I just finished '7 Deadly Sins', and before that was David Millar's 'Racing Through the Dark'. Before that was Hamilton's book and before that Floyd's book (that was crap - a continuation of his lies) Next up is Kimmage's 'Rough Ride'. I want to finish that before Le Tour starts. I should be well educated by then, but I hope I am not too cynical to enjoy watching The tour...

  18. Thanks for the feedback. Its good to hear that Marc lives up to his reputation
  19. It's what you see if you walk behind Kim Kardashian in a striped dress
  20. +1 for Marc @ Crown Cycles I would also recommend Kevin @ BMC in Salt River http://www.bicyclerepairs.co.za/?page_id=30 (they have a collect and deliver option)
  21. What about a Bell Sweep?
  22. Is James Reid too young (U23 and not Elite?) Its the first time in a while that Kevin Evans isn't going. That appendix issue really had a huge impact.
  23. Well Hung?
