My brother is trying to wean himself off monster/pepsi max type drinks. Any suggestions for colas that might fit the bill? Would quite like to get him a mix/trial pack type thing if that exists

This would have been a decent Xmas gift!

Rode up it last year. It's no joke :D

Quite hard to capture since the views were panoramic. But a very beautiful road. Often you don't feel "in" the mountains on alpine climbs but not here. A relatively traffic free climb since it's timed access for traffic (in summer anyway)

Thomson Elite seatpost, 27.2 x 250mm. Some insertion marks, will include a collar which takes it to 31.8. £30 sold

Thomson X2 stem, 100m, 17 degree. Not sure it's ever been fitted. Comes with branded bag. £30

Will post for a little extra on top.

I might have those things....just packed up stuff to move so will need to locate in a box when I unpack but shouldn't be too hard. Will need to check dimensions also. ..

The brakes are noisy
It's too heavy
He only rides 50k max (no gravel)
It's usually covered in too much luggage for 50k

Other than that it's clearly very versatile

Er maybe but I didn't hit Lewisham (high street) today, catford and new cross though?

Maybe just some other hipster with hair and beard

Ancient post, but I have two rolls of this (Jo Burt tape) I haven't used yet. If you'd like one it's yours for a craft beer or a couple of bars of decent chocolate

No, it's a good ferry, and in summer you'll find plenty of other touring cyclists to make friends with.

Rotterdam is a very easy ride from the ferry at hook of Holland.

He could still fall off or not make the time cut.

Rider for rider UAE are a considerably stronger team than Bora, so that Rog didn't lose any time on a stage where he was dropped/distanced a few times is probably mission accomplished for that team.

Only for dads like you. Your bike is a dog's dinner anyway what are you doing in this thread

Thanks team Armchair DS. It's a pity this is my peak in life but you don't get to choose your talent, I guess

Velogames is war

It's early days... I will be rolling in with the bums come the end

@amey haven't you received my fax?

@amey we need to do this properly next year, no bullshit no crybabies

Oooh missed you!

Agree with that ^ the road to Villard Notre dame and then the mild gravel road to col du solude is great.

Alpe d'huez has great graffitti but the col de sarenne would be the better climb. I'd say essential really. It's a bumpy but beautiful descent if you do it that way.

There's also a very tasty gravel "road" from albanette / col d'albanne that takes you to Valloire and then Galibier if you choose.

Frankly it's well explored territory and you can't go far wrong. This is the bible:
