Pro-cycling thread

The Duke of Wellington.

And can you check your diary, I would like a lift to London after Flanders.

HHV might put it on the telly in the pavilion - drop them an email info@hernehillvelodrome.com

Yesterday we passed a quick step or whatever they are lad at the top of Winnats fixing a puncture. Every time I see a pro training in the uk I’m amazed how few have guards, lights or any high viz. surprised more teams don’t do brighter training kit

Maybe you should stop next time and offer them a few pearls of wisdom? Maybe give them some training and nutrition advice while you're at it?

That’s the old Bernal

That’s a good idea, thanks

When do the classics start? Really looking forward to it.

Omloop got to be soon.

Missing steephill.tv

I use firstcycling to check the calendar. Omloop is on 25 Feb.

Omloop is the Saturday 25th , then I think next day is Kurnne …. but the best one is Les Samyns on the following Tuesday - for some reason it always seems like a really exciting old fashioned Flandrian hard mans , or hard womens race
and it’s in Dour !

Thanks!

Respect to Team DSM, who gave Marius Mayrhofer a pro contract even so he was long stretches not able to ride his bike from after when Remco beat him in the junior worlds in Innsbruck until some results the end of last season and now the win in Australia.

brighter training kit

Gbct latest windblockers are fluoro yellow fwiw.

Ooh cool I’ll look out for those, not seen any of them out for a while. All off in sunnier climes or staying away from the wet ice round here!

Unnecessary but thanks for the tip.
That’s not at all what I was saying is it, I was commenting on how I find it funny that they do all their training on race bikes and wearing dark kit on a very dark day in the peaks. That’s all.

Gotta love a premature celebration, so many thanks to Van Wilde in the Volta ao Algarve today.

Flora Perkins top twenty in Valenciana Womens first stage - for new team Fenix/Dequeninck - and fourth in young riders jersey , great stuff for VCL …

especially good as she was in the lead-out role!

Insane finish at the Volta ao Algarve.

If cycling did kit with names on the back, I’d get a Cort EF jersey. He’s awesome.

Lol
