Write a letter to the station commander too - Such dismissive attitudes are endemic, and unlikely to change without action.

(If you can be arsed.)

I can't wait to see this on the highlights this evening.

Where was Froome in the lead out?
Twittering his wife.

Seb Coe, though.

WAC.

Not bothered about the lanes themselves really but the traffic light phase changes have ruined my commute. OKR is a carpark both directions morning and night god knows how bad it will get when the lanes go live.
The South end of South bound London Bridge phasing seems to have been fucked about with too. A standstill at 11pm yesterday.

Rather than listen to the bitchy comments of his gf, here is what Froome had to say:-

He didn't sound quite so convincing when he was interviewed warming down after the race.

But then again, he's human (mostly) and was probably a little tired & emotional.

I, for one, am glad that the police can assault people, without due cause, and leading to their deaths, with impunity.

It makes me feel safer at night.

I can just about do 1 x 100 @ 1:20, if it's a 25m pool.

Any more than that, and you're having a laugh.

130gi?
53x11

testing the water
He needs to HTFU and jump in.

According to Strava, Dov did Galibier in 645 m/h. Dope control tests aren't in yet.

Was he 'slaining it?
What is it with Grupetto and walking up hills?

Hippy?

I've just worked out who my new internet lawyer is going to be.
H2 2012 is all about internet financial advice. Possibly with no small amount of child rearing tips, tricks and constructive criticism.

But that means that you get to trackstand your road bike.

Which is your thing.

Thanks TW, could you expand on what the actual legalities are of the ORN or more specifically how a cyclist should respond if police try to issue any of us with fines...as i think that would be particularly useful. Cheers!

West to East ORN ride?? obviously via PM....
Old bill is fucking jokes we ORN ride all day, you no get catched.

Bump

One the line is not over the line, which is the offence. Either way - You would probably claim de minimis as a defence.

Charlton Lido yesterday evening.

All fc
4 x 100 warmup
500 drills (single arms, breathing, snorkel stuff)
8 x 200 css main set
300 warm down

3000 in all

I overestimated my CSS time for 100m - I thought it was 1:50 ish, turns out I can only knock out 2:00 / 2:05

As I tire, it looks as though my stroke suffers, getting shorter, choppier and less efficient, so the harder I try, the worse I get.

I could really feel the weakness at the end of each pull though, and struggled to complete the stroke with any strength.

I do like that pool though. A whole lane to myself for 70 minutes was blissful.

Or even a new start?

Never works
It's doomed to fail.

Aren't you going to Cornwall Sparky? You can easily get in 1000m of elevation for every 30km / 40km travelled.

But I wouldn't let my daughter marry one.

I struggle to imagine how they will possibly enforce this
"They" being the operative word.

TfL cannot enforce, as they do not have the authority to issue PCNs to cyclists (or owners / keepers of pedal cycles), as they can only do so via approved devices, i.e. cameras, which cannot, as yet, identify cyclists.

And even if they could identify the cyclist via camera, they only have the authority to issue PCNs to keepers of vehicles.

The police will not (and, as far as I recall, cannot) enforce as the roads are, by and large, the domain of TfL, and governed by the Traffic Management Act, not the Road Traffic Act.

But the polis might still give a cyclist a £30 NEFPN, though I don't know for which offence.

not exactly first hand, but:

http://www.eta.co.uk/2012/07/09/olympic-road-ban-cyclists-will-put-lives-risk

Cyclists who stray into the Games Lanes will face a fixed penalty of £130 and their bike will be impounded if they are unable to pay.

The ETA has, I think, got it completely wrong.

Nobody has any authority to impound any bicycle (short of a court order, or maybe authority implied by contract).

There is no such thing as a £130 fixed penalty, either prior to, or post- the various pieces of Games legislation.

Heads up for anyone who might missed it, but it is claimed that anyone caught cycling in a games lane will face £130 payable on the spot fine or impounding of the vehicle...
I struggle to find anything that supports this claim.

"C'mon Friggins!"
G'wan, Woom...
