We have one of these which my kids have now outgrown. Let me know if of interest and I can send over some pics:

Completely get that, but I think there are plenty who will take the email at face value and add to the trainer-landfill issue without thinking.

For context these shoes are 6-month old Asics Evoride Speeds and still have plenty of bounce to them, minimal wear around the heel, and still in good nick generally

I just got an email telling me that because I've run 800km in my shoes I should buy a new pair. What a load of old consumerist tosh

Oh I see - so the white is the Monster equivalent of the "coveted" Red Bull headwear. A prime opportunity for the other sprinters to tie-in with some of the non-captured energy drink brands. Jasper p/b Prime? A Groenewegen x Tenzig collab?

How come Ser Cav gets to wear a natty white helmet while the rest of the team are in Kazakh 'celeste'? Aren't there UCI rules about this kind of thing? I get that it makes him easier to spot in a bunch for his team, but if it were that easy wouldn't all the teams have sprinters in unique colours?

Made up for Cav. Bit surprised no one has made a fuss about the shoulder barge he gave the Bahrain rider on the run in. All's fair in love, war, and sprinting, I suppose

I'm running an affected crankset on my old road bike which has an Ultegra 10s groupset. This works fine with the 11s crankset which needs to be inspected/replaced. But from what I understand Shimano will replace with a 12s crankset if it fails inspection. Will this be compatible with the 10s I'm currently running - assume an 11s chain will work with both?

I'd go up via Eagle Heights rather than Lullingstone (which is a common horsey route and as a result incredibly churned up/rutted). Nice little underpass under M25 and pops out (through quite an overgrown entrance to the footpath) next to Crockenhill

Whatever you end up doing I'd recommend making sure you have your pre-run poo especially if you're going to be running before most places open. I end up doing quite a lot my training pre-breakfast and my go-to is a pint of water/electrolytes and a banana before heading out, with some nutrition in hand in case energy levels drop

Damn I missed these when first out. Would definitely buy now. Any chance of an Albion tribute?

Are you looking to head into the East of Kent (Swanley/Knatts Valley way), or more South towards Star/Toys?

If the former then this is a nice loop. Essentially you're looking to head through Chislehurst/Petts Wood: https://www.strava.com/activities/7746365227

If more the latter then I'd do something like this: https://www.strava.com/activities/10322242135

Agreed but can you really tell fit based on 5 mins on a treadmill?

Is there a cheaper way to "try out" new shoes without simply shelling out the cash and then selling on the secondary market (presumably at a reasonable loss) if they don't work after a long run or two? I have historically stuck to ASICS as I know the sizing and haven't yet found a pair I don't get on with. Conversely the first pair of Saucony's felt fine in the shop but then tore my feet to shreds losing me about £100 in the process

Flipping heck. Wouldn't fancy being the door staff trying to subdue Big Bill:

White shoes for UK gravel though

Anyone done the Dorney marathon? Looking at it to hopefully PB later this year

What's going on with the spatzwear adverts on Eurosport? Audio is massively fuzzy - is this the intention or just terrible execution?

Well done :) Story to the building is here: https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2024/feb/06/attacked-by-an-ice-cream-scoop-the-story-of-londons-gouged-building-union-street

Co-incidentally I saw the previous Simpson's tag featured in the Grauniad's "photo of the day" feature

+1

It's next to some of the most precious blood in all of London

Bigger/better clue needed?

New: scooped!

Old: Simpsons couch mural @ old eagle pub, camden

The pudding made me do it!
