road.cc goes https – what does that mean for you?
The url to road.cc has changed in the last few days – hopefully if you’ve noticed at all it’s just that a little padlock symbol has appeared next to the road.cc url in your browser.
That's how it should be.
However, in a small number of cases if you’ve got road.cc bookmarked or it's cached in your browser you may experience a problem logging in - basically because you’re being directed to the old http version of the site.
You should be able to cure the problem by flushing your browser cache OR even more simply by opening road.cc in a new tab. Your bookmark should start to work as normal in a couple of days when the http version of the site becomes no longer accessible.
Although we haven't migrated road.cc's sister sites over to https yet some users of the road.cc Fantasy Cycling site may also be having problems logging in if they have recently changed their password - we're working on a fix to that right now.
If you have experienced any problems logging in we are really sorry… Google made us do it, even though from a security point of view it was a total waste of everybody’s time and may have caused you some difficulty accessing the site.
Tony has been editing cycling magazines and websites since 1997 starting out as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - which he continues to edit today. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes.
Would certainly contribute to reducing global warming.
Don't know about that, but there is generally a lot of support up there for the Etape. It's a place where the tourist industry dominates, but May...
A lot of the time I suspect it's more like "I get a punishment pass because the driver was told by someone that they once nearly saw a cyclist go...
If only you'd take a leaf.........
I always found Spanish drivers to be courteous, and more importantly not malicious. Close passes were because they weren't aware of the danger...
That's the special floodlight mode. I'll get that edited. Thanks for the spot!
Well don't read my comment then! THey may be average in rolling resistance terms but they're comfortable, flexible, fast (for me at least). If you...
I've done it twice solo: Brentford to Barca in 1992 (flew back) and Barca to Ascot in 2012 - there was an Olympic theme linking the two. The north...
It might not be a problem that everyone will have and it will depend on individual shoe/pedal/crank arm combinations along with the cleat position...
Love this. Hopefully trickle down ecomomics will mean all our clothing will have a lower impact on the environment
