have say climbing alot better despite bit time off bike, passed out early on in climb, followed wheel for while but dropped on steeper part, but caught him at top when i just kept churning out the gear near top, just shows what knowing climb does for you.

I cant imagine why anyone hoping win a grand tour wouldnt recon all the major climbs.

This is what I'm afraid of.
Everything looks grand it's just my first time adjusting any of this and I'm a worrier.

Quick spin down to the gym now to ask about prices so I'll find out now. :eek:

A blast from the past. I am putting together my turbo training music. There will be a lot of camp 80's classics.

Don't try cycling to Adam Ant - Prince Charming (unless it's up Seskin!)

Joe Esposito - The Best has to be in there somewhere though

You would love my ipod so.
While consuming post spin coffee and bikkies ins casa bcmf on sat morn I put my ipod on the home stereo it ended up in Rob Fowl trying to name (and mostly succesfully I must say) all the tracks that came on.

Here is a quick sample list:
Atmosphere - Joy Division
Black Eyed Boy - Texas
Boys Keep Swinging - Bowie
Lets Dance - Bowie
Late 90's early 00's New Order which is very possibly their best stuff
Enola Gay - OMD
Everything Counts (Live) - DM
Hand in Glove - The Smiths
How Soon is Now - The Smiths


etc etc etc.....

That reminds me that I saw a blog by a woman in the north of England that is about her experiences on her cargo trike, a Nihola that she has nicknamed Nihola Gay, after that OMD song. However, she also, unbeknownst to herself, has indirectly named it after the plane that dropped the atom bomb on Hiroshima, which is unfortunate.

That in turn reminds me of a delicatessen I heard about which had a chef called Sophie. Her special of the day was written up on the board every day under the heading of "Sophie's Choice".

Emile Heskey spotted in Newcastle, although he was probably aiming for Middlesbrough:D

Anyone remember the cycle gear (?) manufacturer and their joke washing instructions label aimed at women?

was something like this, only less blatant.



Some po-faced people took issue to it and they dropped it following the 'controversy'.

The UK economy was lifted out of recession in August 2011 when Beasty crossed the border to do a spot of shopping at Slane Cycles.
