    Not tried it, but I can’t wait for Neverwet to come to market – the demo videos of that are crazy. I’ll be able to buy a pair of nice white sparkling trainers (an indeed cycling shoes!) without being broken-hearted at the first sign of dirt.

    Leaving aside the private prosecution for a moment, is there a mechanism to escalate the reluctance for a criminal prosecution? What about your local police commissioner?

    Is it not possible then (pjt201 sounds like he/she may have experience in this area, certainly more knowledgeable than I) to claim some form of compensation against the other party for injuries sustained?

    Ha, not heard that before! Well when the “damn cyclists getting in the way” brigade get going, you could always call them velogroans…?

    Well I met my missus via match.com, nearly 10 years ago. Certainly more effective than a drunken kiss in a dark nightclub.

    It’s bad in a good way! The bit where the guy shows off a skill or hobby always gets me – what would I do in their shoes, ride a turbo?!

    My Bontrager wheels are
    My Bontrager wheels are tubeless-ready, but I haven’t yet taken advantage of that. I’d like to see a decent range of tubeless tyres before I do – the Conti GP4000s black chillis that I’m currently running are absolutely fan-dabby-dozy so I’d want to see something of similar performance/traction etc before I switch.

    Very true, the only problem is getting to actually see any footage of womens racing. I tend to get my news from Twitter, although there was a low-res blocky youtube clip of that stage 1 sprint. Viewed on my phone, it could have been anyone!

    Agreed, I was gutted for her, especially after such a great sprint the day before that it was verging on a breakaway rather than a last dash for the line. I was looking forward to her battering everyone.

    How come you were racing him, anyway?

    Properly gutted, I actually had a lump in me throat when I saw the tweet that she’d come off!! Though massively chuffed for her for winning that first stage, what an opening to her career over there!! Showing ’em how its done in true Barnes style ^_^

    How come? Mainly because I’m clinically insane I think… 😛

    They all (the Manx pros) tend to do any races that are on when they’re over. Pete K regularly does the road series, Cav’s not over often as he doesn’t live here any more but he always does a race called the Hamper which is put on every xmas, it’s horrendous as all the pros are home so you can imagine the carnage from the gun. Needless to say I did an ‘alright’ timetrial 😉 Good off-season fun though, and it’s nice to see who’s in foOrm. Pete K, Cav and Mark Christian (Raleigh) lapped me at about 40mph near the end… f**king ridiculous! Amazing though 😀

    Anyway back to subject, my moneys on Cav mainly over bias but also because he’s looking good, he’s more determined than ever and OPQS have put a lot of work into surrounding him with a totally epic team. I am excite. :)

    Well my first thought, however fleeting, was “nah, it’s Hannah Barnes, she’ll get back on and win just to show how pissed off she is!” Alas, it was a bit worse than the time she did that.

    Your race sounds awesome though! I did see a shot of the pro’s break in CW.

    As to the men, Kittel said in a recent interview that the difference between him and Cav at the TdF was the cohesion of the Argos lead-out train. Cav, on the other hand, says he was still recovering from antibiotics, which always sap his strength apparently. Plus he’s now got Renshaw again.

    Ultimately, it’ll all come down to the little things; who had a cold a few days before etc. Need to hope Cav doesn’t need any more penicillin.
