  1. Fully agree here John , I have just finished reading Jens Voigt's book and he speaks very highly of Riis as a team owner and DS . Certainly he has a way of extracting the best out of his riders . Clean or not ???? Time will tell .
  2. Firstly , going back to page 1 and the video of what happened . Under NO circumstances can the rangers actions be justified , regardless of whether Nic had a permit or not , or even if choice language was exchanged . Secondly , I may have missed it , but has Nic ever put out a statement with his version of events ? We know initially the rangers had a BS story about him breaking his own arm , but they did comment . Has Nic ?? If he hasn't , do we take his silence as "Don't speak to me , speak to my lawyer " . If he has ( sorry I missed it ) what was his version ?? Regardless , I hope he heals up quick and can still achieve his goals for the year .
  3. I'm with Copperhead on this one
  4. I have a set of Prime wheels (28mm) . I absolutely love them . They are my training wheels so get used a lot . Now that CRC are no longer using Skynet , these wheels are well worth bringing in . I have the staright pull spokes on the upgraded hub . Was about 1K more for that option . Total landed here with all duties was about 10K .
  5. Vman12 did you do 115km/h down Fields Hill ???? BIG KUHUNA'S if you did ....
  6. I have been following this from the start . Firstly , glad the OP is finally getting back to riding . Secondly , thanks to BogusOne and Carbon Ninja for some very enlightening info regards carbon repairs . Seems like the 2 of you really know your story .
  7. A while back a load of tar was dumped on part of our route . 2 guys from our group went there one Friday afternoon with a pick , spade , fork and broom and removed the said obstacle . I think concrete may not be quite as easy to remove , and also depending how much there is .
  8. Thanks John , I know right now it isn't World Tour ..... yet !!

    Here are some that I have read . Some good , some ok !! The Tour according to G ... I thought it was excellent , especially how he explains their communication during the TTT . Jens Voigt . Shut Up Legs ... Exactly what you expect , down to earth and light hearted . Tour De Lance . Bill Strickland .... Fair read 23 Days in July . John Wilcockson . Excellent Bad Blood . Jeremy Whittle . Not bad but a bit tedeous . Thomas Dekker , The Descent ... Excellent . Proper insight into doping in the early 2000"s 7 Deadly Sins ... David Walsh . No wonder he always felt so strong about Armstrong being a doper ... great insight .
  11. I see they have signed Marc Pritzen to the European Feeder squad (Pro tour I think it is called ) .
