Report from the front: it's already here - just check out any of many 'articles' on the Oxford Mail site, or some of the comments on the Abingdon Blog any time cycling is mentioned.
Is that a mixed media metaphor?
Has anyone else ever looked so self righteous and arrogant on a police mugshot?
It's slightly weird, the more expensive the bikes they dump on us, the more the industry looks in peril. Being someone who rides motorbikes as well as bikes, to say the cycle industry is taking the p155 is an understatement. 10 grand of motorbike buys you so much more than another average 10 grand bike that scores 3.5 in the reviews. Wake up guys and smell something, the golden goose is well and truly migrating.
Gaining credit for 'remorse' for an attack against a cyclist in a UK court is as simple as declaring 'yeah, yeah, remorse, remorse'. If you conjure up a few tears, you'll be established as a 'humanitarian' and be sent home with an award, and that's only if you can even get the case past the established resistance from the police.
This year I went to see the Clitheroe Blackpool stage of the Tour of Britain Women where the girls had to wait around in the rain because of closed roads due to typical Lancashire banzai drivers crashing all over the place. Next year the men's TdF comes close to me on the hills SE of Lancaster, which is lucky. Unfortunately, the TdF women Leeds to Manchester stage would involve a lot of miles on Death Highways through lots of towns, so that's out
I've applied to be a volunteer, or a "joy giver" as they are insisting on calling it. I'm surprised at the prices, generally in Scotland there's been good crowds anyway for events and they've been very inclusive. Last year the crit circuit for the final stage of the Women's Tour of Britain in Glasgow was kept closed for 3 hours after the race for the public to ride on (mostly, there were still pedestrian crossings with marshals) closed roads, and a wee circuit for younger riders or anyone unable to manage the full circuit.
@ChrisA - at sentencing lack of remote is indeed an aggravating factor which is why any advocate worth their salt is a pains to say how the incident has left their client tangled up in blue.
@Rendel Harris Whilst a large number of drivers who have killed & injured others may shed crocodile tears (your legal advisor will certainly advise you to do so). They all have to live with the consequences. This will obviously weigh more heavily on some than others. I know someone who was involved in an accident, in their youth, where someone was killed. They were not at fault. They have not driven since. They did not want to be in the position where they felt responsible for another injury or death, even if it wasn't their fault. Having said all that, I don't see why an expression of remorse (or hardship) is a mitigating factor in sentencing. Lack of remorse, I would suggest, should be seen to be an aggravating factor.
@the little onion Yep, there's a certain troll of this parish (not, to be fair, the regular idiot but another one who turns up occasionally) who, in addition to stating that there's no point in sending drivers to prison if they kill or maim cyclists unless they were speeding or drunk frequently asks us to "have sympathy for the driver who will suffer the trauma of this unfortunate event for the rest of their lives."

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!
