    slower start to the year than i'd hoped - i've only just passed the 1000km mark this morning.

    Just tipping 3000km myself, haven't been tracking it online as much so the exact figure is not known but it will be a minimum of 3000km at the end of this week.

    3200k myself , bad weather has slowed me down a bit in absolute km terms but got out off road a bit more.

    1600k with 17,000m elevation. Need to start doing more 100k + spins again - especially with the Orwell just around the corner.

    Driving up the M11 yesterday, and I sh1t you not, a Nissan Micra, tipping 120kmph if not a bit over it, overtakes me while watching a video on his phone. I watched as he constantly corrected his driving every 15seconds as he drifted out of lane. Later on, maybe 30minutes later, ended up passing him and my passenger pointed out the same Nissan Micra, apparently it was some live sports, coming upto Kilmacanogue.

    So have we a new thread title yet?

    How about, "it's for their own safety" or "that will learn you"?

    Speaking of Coffee stops

    http://www.italymagazine.com/featured-story/milan-sanremo-when-fausto-coppi-stopped-coffee-way-victory
    After passing Varazze, Coppi held an eight-minute lead. People were out in the town piazzas and stood along the sides of the streets cheering him on. The radio commentator couldn’t stop; he was like a hammer talking of the breakaway by the rider. Caffè Piccardo in Piazza Dante held one of the few radios in the village, suddenly a bystander cried out: “He’s here, Coppi is here!”

    The radio presenter exclaimed: “Ten minutes now ahead of the group.”

    Coppi slowed down and got off his bike. Gingerly placing his bike against a railing, he walked in, ordered an espresso, drank up, paid and left. He went on to win the Milan to Sanremo stage with 14 minutes between him and the group.

    For anyone still using the old site, this is page number 666. That used to get people giddy towards a thread's final stages

    I'm on page 666.
    I didn't know, there was a new site.
    Is it any better?
    How do I get it.

    Do yourself a favour and don't go near the 'un'responsive site. It's a disaster to use.

    Click Responsive Site in the page footer. I've never used it for more than a few minutes before switching back.

    It appears that posting on this thread at the moment is like time wasting in a football match.
