Having sat on the rowing machine through the British men winning the Team Pursuit Gold, setting a new world record in the process, Kirsty and I went to see the real thing last Friday at the World Track Championships in Manchester.
We didn’t miss out as one of the first things we saw on Friday evening […]
Eston, 1997
Uncle Peter captains the tandem of doom at Eston in 1997. There’s actual air under that rear wheel.
Canada, Eh!
Not always for the better? Or do we just not have all perspectives* of the story.
Mike and Jessica have always been great to me, turning up at random on their doorstep while on a Canadian roadtrip and smuggling #50 back to the UK.
Frank Skurlock has always been perfectly pleasant when I’ve raced with him […]
This outburst from Flloyd Landis contains some interesting points.
FL: Look, I don’t know what Mayo did or didn’t do. All I know is that the reason you have protocol for anti-doping stuff is because anti-doping is based on science, and science is based on performing tests according to certain criteria. And if you don’t perform […]
“A Scottish cycling champion has died after a collision with a van”

A whole shitstorm has kicked off over on MTBR here and here (careful - it’s slow as slow thing these days), about the SSWC08.
Looks like Curtiss et al did a great job of weeding out the undesirables to me. Some of the comments being thrown their way are clear indications that the protaginists are the […]
The boys from Rollapaluza - you may remember them from such events as sswc2007 - are coming to Manchester.
Make December 8th a night of roller racing, DJs and Beer at the Central Skatepark, Ancoats.

Man In Black
This from Tom Boonen made me laugh…
Boonen further claimed that Vinokourov was indeed one of the so-called ‘Men in Black’ - a term used to describe professional riders training in plain colours to avoid detection. “I saw him myself, wearing black,” said Boonen.
[Cycling News, 26 July 2007]
I’m not sure the “Men […]

in no particular order...
For all that we like the up-to-the minute offerings of the web there‚s nothing like a proper badly photocopied A5 fanzine or a glossily printed proper magazine to keep you occupied on the throne. Here, in no particular order, is our material of choice.
