    Really hope Wiggins, Cancellara and Martin do go for it, would be really interested to see how Wiggo's technique and track experience stacks up against the power of the other two.

    Good old Jensie though, nice way to bow out.

    Nice to see De Marchi take it - he's been feisty all year.

    Also enjoyed Calamity Froome continuing his good form this season.

    I haven't had a puncture in 3500 km and am worried that in some moment of drunken puncture induced fury I sold my soul in exchange for never having one again.

    What he actually said was that it would likely be a 50-50 and the dink in his Audi would probably come to more than my wheel and a bump on the head, so it wasn't worth pursuing. Sorry - bit lazy with the facts there.

    Skydancer, brilliant work, think mutual understanding is important, I've driven vans for a living and it's no fun. The situation that these people are put in is unfair and the equipment they are given is inadequate.

    On passing on the right - had an incident last winter where I got hit by a car coming out of a junction when I was passing stationary traffic on the outside which was waiting to turn into a junction, it was a one way st (so no traffic should be exiting it) but when I tried to talked to a lawyer was told I had no case as passing on the outside is considered dangerous. There was a cycle lane on the inside but no one in their right mind is going to use that when there's a left turn.

    I was unconcious for a bit and needed a new front wheel so it wasn't a major thing but it's an issue if passing on the outside (the safer side) compromises your position legally.

    Hi, been commuting fixed in SE for 18 months now. Started from scratch and learned pretty much all I know from here so think some contributions now well overdue!
