    Didn't some guy do something similar around the Phoenix Park a year or two back?

    Whatever happened to him?

    Sounds cool. Fair play to him, he's riding a stormer in Spain for himself.

    Does he have a daily diary column on the go for the Vuelta btw?

    Almost 3 years to the very day! Yeah, I was there man. First long spin on a bike (70kms) and I bonked big style all the way home!

    Expect lots of 'Go Nico', 'Thankyou Nico', 'We believe in you Nico', 'Avoid steak and chips with Bertie next year, Nico', 'I can't believe its not Nico' painted on the Military Rd if he goes round the Park.:pac:

    More info here

    http://www.nicolasrocheclassic.com/

    ....actually there's not a lot!

    I just typed in 'www.nicolasrocheclassic.com' into the address bar and this appeared.

    I wonder if the de Da and the cousin will be partaking?

    EDIT - looks like Tayto are sponsoring it - nothing like linking sport with healthy food!

    potatos dont even count as 5 a day, but 5 a day is just a PR campaign by the food industry anyway
