So the IFS have come out and said Labour's spending plans do add up, be nice to see if the media start reporting this or keep reporting the disproven Tory figure of 45bn funding gap in pledges

@Chalfie thanks will have a read

Most with those aspirations will never come close but won't stop them voting against their best interests

Labour are open to it, they are doing it here in Brighton, Labour won't run in Brighton Pavillion to support Caroline Lucas and the Greens won't run in Brighton Kempton in the hope Labour can retake it from the tories who only have a 1,500 majority. Think a similar deal might be going on in Bristol as well. Tim Farron is having no part in the progressive alliance because of Labour not opposing Brexit.

Yeh some awful camera work at the end

Tonight's party political broadcast by the Tories was abysmal, not a single policy, just strong and stable, coalition of chaos and character assassination of Corbyn

I've just had to drop out due to patella tendinopthy, at least someone on the waiting list will of had a nice surprise :(

can you post? Cleats included?

Hoping there stock tracker is working as they seem to be one of the few places with speedplay frogs

P20 need to sponsor Valverde's nose, every year it looks fried, its only April and already looking crisp

Flew past Dan Martin and looking fresh, made it look easy after the commentators spending the last hour questioning when he would do something

No one watching LBL?

Other trick is undoing quick releases on wheels so it all goes wrong when thief grabs it or tries to ride off on it

Seen a physio yesterday and apparently I need a minimum of two weeks but more likely a month off the bike as my knees are constantly aching and looks like its down to being toe out and not having my cleats set up properly to reflect that. Also says I need pedal extenders/ knee savers when I get back on the bike to accommodate how duck footed one of my feet is. Apparently I am quad dominant which has been making it worse, got to stretch and roll everyday until I see him again in two weeks. So gash, looks like lots of walking for the next few weeks as can't think of any other cardio activity that won't make problems apart from swimming and I hate swimming unless anyone else has any ideas?

Yeh and he did twenty miles short of his daily target as they got lost, guess it's why he's practising

He posts his rides on strava, this was yesterdays first leg:
https://www.strava.com/activities/928333008/overview

Looks like he is still sponsored by Koga, which is what he used for his across Africa trip

Isn't that what the four people in the camper van are for?

Going through Russia saves him about half a dozen border crossings from his previous route, so probably buys him at least an extra day of cycling instead of stood around trying to get through borders, if not more

Full length of Russia sounds horrible but guess he must of researched it and though it better option than Central Asia, probably much nicer temperature.hope he likes looking at trees. Road were crap when I was there a decade ago, must of improved. Maybe that red bull race showed it's a option.

So he wants to do 240 for 80 days, isn't Steve Abraham doing about 230 a day at the moment for his year record?
