 What's your thoughts on one legged drills? Member 1725, 4343 posts SQ 250, BP 125, DL 272.5647.5 kgs @ 111kgs UnEq | Cuddles said: Not for the Olympics. Or at least not according to Cycling News. He's entered an event specifically to get track points. could be some international points then or something as i am pretty certain that BC track points go to your road as i know people that pick up points on the grass track and manc velodrome | ||

In the right classics yes. But he's never going up the steep stuff like Canc, Sagan, Gilbert and the real punchy climbers. No chance, ever. Given its a 2 year training cycle for the pursuit, that gives him next season only for the classics. He'd need some luck! | ||

 embarrasingly poor bench Member 2684, 4043 posts SQ 240, BP 135, DL 275650.0 kgs @ 103kgs UnEq | Cuddles said:That's some decent mileage for an old timer Gotta love the Spanish, it's only 2 days into La Vuelta and its already a massacre. Sanchez and henaos performances were particularly disappointing. can't help but think that Sanchez needed a good vuelta to get signed by another team once euskaltel cease to be, he'll presumably now be looking at a fairly drastic pay cut next season unless he suddenly manages to turn things around. | ||

 smack the shit out of my pubic bone Member 1902, 919 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 230500.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Saw a Moulton with drop handlebars on my ride home tonight. Think it might have been this model: http://www.moultonbicycles.co.uk/models/AM202.html Top quality and I think they look cool   | ||

Cuddles said:There are even fold away bike races these days. You have to wear a suit... Think there's even a World Champs! Yeah, heard about that, didnt they have a race around a motor track recently? Moultons kick the crap out of Bromptons (although i like Bromptons as well), some of their frames are stainless steel which is dead swish!  | ||

Eat.Cycle.Sleep.Win Member 2, 12511 posts SQ 190, BP 150, DL 280620.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq Administrator | Just seen today's stage from La Vuelta. Tony Martin is an ANIMAL! As much as it pains me to admit it, I hope he beats Wiggins at the Worlds. Even if just off of today. That was amazing. | ||

 I am a bench-only guy Member 3, 10035 posts SQ 185, BP 175, DL 235595.0 kgs @ 140kgs UnEq Administrator | Post Edited: 29.08.2013 @ 23:18 PM by Rick Just watching the highlights now. There is no rider I like more than Der Panzerwagen, he's great!God, what a heartbreaker. | ||

 Member 174, 1236 posts | That was soul-destroying at the end. Holding that gap was phenomenal by Martin. It wasn't even as though the peloton weren't trying to pull him back either. The last 15kms, when he kept then at bay, was pure power. | ||
