Wow. Now that's impressive. In hospital one day, disgraced, looks like your career is over, then finish in the bunch in a UCI 2.1 stage race the next!

What's with all the zeros? ie: starting at "20", not "21". And some team lists are missing numbers from the sequence. http://www.cyclingnews.com/races/97th-tour-de-france-gt/start-list

Oh yes, thanks Susan. Might have guessed that if I'd actually followed the link and seen that it was a womens event. Looks like the UCI code has changed since that web page was written and women's events had a "9" in them (which was a bit patronising).

The old website had a link to this useful page explaining the UCI race codes such as the "2.HC" which appears after the Skoda-Tour de Luxembourg on the current home page. I can't find this information on the new site. On the current home page there is: Liberty Classic June 6, 2010...

No, sorry. I was wrong. It does seem to be updating OK.

Didn't the "latest" page of the live race reports auto-reload on the old website? It isn't doing this for me. I was trying to follow the UCI World Champs time trial.

For example in the eurobike part 12 gallery the pictures appear to have been shuffled like a pack of cards!

There are often things wrong with the photos and thumbnail galleries. I see pictures out of order in the tech sections. The report for the U23 World Championships time trial has some mountain bikers tacked on the end.

Why is the same text repeated above and below photos (in smaller type below)?

There are lots of things which I don't like about the new site design, but the font is one which annoys me the most. Why is the text so small? I think it is smaller than any other website I visit. And why Arial? Arial is not a good font for making large blocks of text legible.

I have now found the gallery view a couple of times, but no idea how I got there! The pictures on the stage reports are no longer links. On the old site I could go to a picture, then jump to "related story" or "related gallery".

I agree. I'm going to have to avoid looking at the site during the Tour de France. I could safely visit it last year, because I'd be OK as long as I didn't click on the "Stage x results, report and photos" links. The first and second edition cycling news stories didn't mattter because they were...

I agree with this. I miss two other picture related functions from the old galleries: 1.) Clicking on the image takes you to the next picture. This is by far the easiest way to look through a gallery, because it is a much larger target to click. 2.) The gallery view, where you could see...
