    Sticky bottle is growing on me thb. I like the way it's uncluttered and easy to read.

    Sticky Bottle has the advantage because it's written in English, but would still look at Irish Cycling for domestic stuff especially pre-race info.

    Perhaps it's just my eyesight but the picture on stickybottle of Dan Martin looks like he's just won his first street luge event. Gets my vote just for that and the much better layout of course.

    I've stickybottle in my Google Reader along with other cycling feeds, sadly that option isn't available on the 90's design of irishcycling. I'd check into Irish Cycling once a month or so.

    I really dislike the name Sticky Bottle. It doesnt evoke an image of cycling in this country. It think it should be changed, to what I am not sure.

    It is a nice site and well presented. I like the layout and content, best of luck to those behind it. Well done - just find a more suitable name. (Maybe, cycling in rain and covered in sheep ****e)

    Yes I do. But it is a generic term, and does not conjure up a website devoted to Irish cycling. It could be any cycling website, from anywhere.

    And indeed it is a cycling website, from Ireland ;)

    FFS, lads. As much as irishcycling has invested in the sport over the years, it hasn't moved an inch forward since 1998.

    stickybottle is much more readable (and apparently, topical). It also appears in FB feeds. Like just about every other news site.

    Extra bonus points for not featuring a certain 'journalist' that writes like Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh speaks.
