Knersboy Posted May 23, 2022 Share Yoh she is belting it. I haven’t seen her look up once, dunno how she does it. This must be super painful. The little tuft of her ponytail flapping in the wind is driving me nuts though. Sid the Sloth and lechatnoir 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted May 24, 2022 Share Massive ride! I love the way Ellen acknowledges herself and the team as this is a complete collective effort. Faster than Merckx in those days. TheoG and lechatnoir 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ouzo Posted May 24, 2022 Share Massive achievement. I'd love to know what the like of Eddie etc. from that era would do on modern equipment. I look at the gearing they used and cant help but imagine the massive power they were putting out back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
