Using my phone to cast cyclehub.tv to my telly with chromecast. I have no idea how this works but it's fucking great.

Cycled to Haarlem a month ago, really excellent town. Recommend stopping in Katwijk for a mackerel sandwich from the slick place next to the old white church, you can't miss it. In Haarlem itself an excellent and great value restaurant is http://www.hetpakhuishaarlem.nl and don't miss out on poffertjes with strawberries and shitloads of cream from the truck in the main square for breakfast of champions.

Geraint. Bloody brilliant. Loved Quintana looking over about 5 times "oh for fucks sake you still here"

My van Spit&Roast will be selling buttermilk fried chicken & spit roast pork at Port Elliot, Somersault & Green Man over the next couple of months. Any forum bods come and say hello and I'll sort you a deal.

Very interested, could you let me know what year it is & some details of the groupset?

Are you on iPad? Weirdly no sound on that but perfect on my antique MacBook. Using first link on Steephill

Any links working yet? Steep hill & cycling fans Eurosport ones not working for me

5am start tomorrow, doing the 75k again. Will be in Gaiole around 2 tomorrow if anyone fancies a drink. Long dark hair, glasses, 1979 Guerciotti. Say hello!

Would love to join but working. My folks live in Upper Stoke so The Isle is very much in my blood. Highly recommend the Tudor Rose in Upnor for celebratory pints.

Always found the downhills harder than the climbs - even worse when a born to it Tuscan blasts past you without a care in the world. Humbling

Ha ha reminds me of a few years ago Mr Spintoofast telling me how he was getting (mainly good natured) abuse from many old school Italians for rocking a Megarange. Not suffering enough apparently! Me and Nick will be back for the 4th in a row, as usual getting in on the Friday for preparation (shit loads of chianti at the tiny wine bar up the little hill in Gaiole). Any one else docking early?

A classic day for me sat on the sofa watching that. Feel properly drained. Epic indeed

Looks filthy, poor bastards. Having a large glass of Rosso di Montalcino with the window open in sympathy

carrefour ahoy

Still available? Very interested indeed.

Cycled up from Bow to Roydon (on the Stort) last monday. Surface on the Lea is very good these days, no issues on 28c and sure 25's would be just fine. A fair bit of the Stort towpath is unmade but still fine and feels like (almost) proper countryside. Fish and Eels at Hoddeson is worth a stop too for river side ale supping

Also finally had a Spit & Roast fried chicken bap with hot sauce on the weekend, strong, very strong, great way to end my 6 months of bingeing, wanna get hench for summer, can't be harshing out the pool with my belly flap on Napa

Wicked, glad you enjoyed it and nice to meet you briefly. Classic Car Boot was a lot of fun.

In. 4th in a row and will be going for the 135km this time round. Can't bloody wait. Gonna stretch it to a week this year, somehow...

pm'ed

Yes please, would love that

Its good to be back. At the old mans bar off the end of the square now. Jolly bar cafe in about 20 mins then off to Whiskey a go go for gin. I'm in brown trilby come on down

Good to hear Green Papaya still doing the business. Had a brilliant 3 course effort at Viet Grill on Kingsland Rd last week, its a sunday special and well worth a look. Some of the best salt & pepper squid I've had followed by pretty much any rice or noodle dish from the main menu. Banana fritter a slight let down but I was well stuffed by then anyway

Ha ha will do Pat! We are flying in to Pisa too, for some reason the Bologna flights were crazy money this year. See you in the square for a few jars I'm sure, safe flight and all that jazz.

Cheers anyway 105, managed to track down the last remaining pod in the southeast so all should be well. About to start the traditional hour or so of cursing to get the bastard thing packed and then its wine, beer, steak and sleep. See everyone tomorrow, whats a bit of rain anyway? All the more (h)eroic eh?

See you there tomorrow afternoon. Me and Nick should be arriving about 2pm, remember the orange twins from last year... Looking forward to that Saturday prosecco breakfast and looks like the hotel facilities might be well used this year with the weather! Now to pack the bastard into a box...
