https://road.cc/content/news/council-missed-fatal-pothole-focused-dangers-cars-304489 Death of Harry Colledge, and the famous road chasm which oscillated in and out - that was the ludicrous suggestion of the county council when excusing itself for ignoring it
It's not in the UK - it's Ireland, where there doesn't seem to be any minimum age restriction.
What an absolute nonsense that Women's tour of Britain stage two was. Rubbish, cut-price stage, unbecoming of professional athletes, missing out the nice bits of the Forest of Bowland (why not do the cross of greet at the start or go over the trough?) and then didn't even properly make it into Blackpool. At least finish 1 km further down the road outside the Pleasure Beach if you're going to run it, or even better pretend you're in Paris and finish at the tower.
It's probably not the principal writing it themself, though. I mean, what school principal knows how to use Instagram? Never mind inflict this kind of abuse on the account name:
That is literally lethal.
@Cycloid London eh? Standard of driving there is somewhere between Marrakesh and England.
The comments on Facebook where this was shared were fairly standard, 95% anti-cyclist split fairly evenly between: - If you can't see that you shouldn't be on the road [I did try to suggest that at night in the rain or with ground mist it might not be easy to spot, "Well you shouldn't be riding then"] - Good, traps for cyclists, hope they catch plenty - When cyclists pay to use the roads they're entitled to ask for repairs and not before - Bike tyres do more damage to roads than car tyres [made me wonder if Nige was spreading his bread far and wide] and of course - When the cracks are big enough to damage my Porsche Cayenne alloys I'll worry. Lovely.
RE: e-bike ban I'm not clear what they're banning here? Is it e-bikes that pupils ride to school on being stored on school grounds? If pupils are riding e-bikes to school they should be at least 14 (in the UK). The school I work in has told me that their buildings insurance doesn't cover them for e-bikes unless they are stored a minimum distance from the school building - apparently our insecure bike rack with no roof isn't far enough from the building. I keep my ebike in my classroom. If there's a problem I'm happy to remove the battery so it's no longer an ebike (the battery will be behind my desk, plugged into a charger). So maybe it's a problem with insurance if ebikes are left in the bike racks/shelter? If they're saying parents can't take kids to school on e-cargo or similar bikes, they can f... off. It's none of the school's business what mode of transport parents choose to use - unless it's illegal or being used illegally (such as all the SUVs stopping on the zigzags outside the gate).
@mctrials23 Same. Ditch. Crash into it if needed.
How do congratulate the BBC for not running that story with an 'e-bike menace' headline?

dodgy smilies… sorry!
dodgy smilies… sorry!
those aren’t the cool
those aren’t the cool stages… Pau to Tourmalet, now *that’s* a cool stage. Over the Marie Blanque and the Aubisque i hope…
looks like they’re trying to string it out to the bitter end again, tourmalet at 18 and ITT at 20 should make the last week interesting.
more on this later btw…
Is that a mountain top finish
Is that a mountain top finish on the Tourmalet? That will be a good stage, swap this years Ventoux for the Tourmalet!
I bet that is the one they choose for the Etape…
Yeah, they’re going over the
Yeah, they’re going over the tourmalet on 17 and then back up it on 18. so one of those two will be the etape i’d guess
The 17 stage is the re-run of
The 17 stage is the re-run of the original Tourmalet route. 3 cols including the Tourmalet I think. That will be a bugger of a day 🙂
Etape is 18 July, follows
Etape is 18 July, follows route of Stage 17 (summit finish on the Tourmalet)
Anyone want to commit early
Anyone want to commit early on to a road.cc jaunt to the pyrenees? I would certainly up for a bit of a group outing.
I will!
I will!
The etape is Pau – Marie
The etape is Pau – Marie Blanque – Soulor – Tourmalet apparently. Yowch. You miss the Aubisque though, so it could have been harder…
The 2008 Etape was
The 2008 Etape was Pau-Tourmalet-Hautacam. I’m a little disappointed that the 2010 is in the same region and, to me, stage 9 Morzine looks more of a challenge.
Guess they want to celebrate
Guess they want to celebrate the centenary of the first mountain stage, but if so that doesn’t indicate much forward planning when they chose the 2008 Etape.
I’m in for a trip to the
I’m in for a trip to the Etape. Meant to do it this year but a minor back injury meant the doctors wouldnt sign me off as ok by the time the Jan deadline. Luckily I was fine in the end, and went down to have a look at the tour anyway. An amazing holiday.
Dear road.cc, would you be interested in me writing a blog about my preparation for the Etape, kind of like a ‘fat bloke gets fit’ story? I’m keen to do the etape anyway, and I can be witty at times. Current weight is…er, high. But I love love love biking and this could be the journalistic break I need. Or something.

Cheers boys.
hmm… maybe, we’ve got someone
hmm… maybe, we’ve got someone else who is also supposed to be writing a blog about getting fit. Hey we could have a competition! 👿
A competition, as is who
A competition, as is who reaches the summit of the Tourmalet first takes all? At the moment I’m 138kgs, 6’2″ and not really as obese as my BMI rating suggests; built like the proverbial brick outhouse. I reckon I could still drop a couple of stones though, and I can’t think of a better reason to become fitter than I’ll have ever been. Come on mr road.cc, you know you want to. It’d certainly make up for being eternally last in the fantasy football league…!
Gandberg…Im going to take
Gandberg…Im going to take the pressure of being last in the football league off you within the month i expect!
