Re. Wiggins’s what are his possible benefits from going public

Hello , hoping folks can add some local and riding advice on where would be a good base to do this climb and some others around the Sibillini Park and other hills please . What would be ideal is a train connected point for the ride . Thanks

Re: wouldnt mind a little link to the piece you reference The Duke :) anyone offering much on Sicily and good towns for a weeks base for climbing ??

Going to do a 5 days in corsica and was wondering who has experience / advice on a base to allow some loops of 100/120kms rides Likely headed to the north of the island

Going to the city and wouldn't mind tagging a couple of days road biking on at end before departing from the city airport - so - is there somewhere closely that would suit ? Thor of girona territory but we would prefer closer by if that's do-able All advice gratefully received folks

where is it happening ??

in terms of look and fashion it ought to be more Jil Sander than Tommy Hilfiger :d the functional aspects dont need so much attention as the look and feel - if you wanna charge high end prices then you are searching for classic colours and fine features - if you dont i think we have what we...

nice film backdrops - and are they possibly helping greg lemond reclaim his position in anglo cycling history ?
