    Claude Criquielion R.I.P.

    Personally, I can't disassociate him from that super-cool orange Hitachi jersey. I can clearly remember the controversy surrounding those 1988 Worlds and he always had my sympathy as regards that incident. Pelevin - I don't think it flippant to remember him for his cool name. I was still at...

    Commonwealth Games Road Race and TT

    Thanks but I wouldn't be too jealous of my commute - my route takes in only some of the more 'functional' roads used in today's TT. Admittedly there are some quiet and scenic roads to ride near me but none feature in my commute, more's the pity.

    Commonwealth Games Road Race and TT

    We'll it is what is. And it's an opportunity to cheer on athletes who wouldn't normally qualify for other, bigger championships (go Guernsey!!). Plus the TT course is partly on my commute to and from work so I'll go watch and enjoy it all the same. Btw, does anyone have a link to a start list?

    Three Cheers for the Tour de France

    1. Andy - for old times 2. Alberto 3. Pinot - any Frenchie will do but most particularly Pinot but most especially I want to see Corsica put on the grandest of Grands Départs - Forza SCB!

    Liège - Bastogne - Liège : Sunday April 22th 201é

    Not had time to watch the race yet but just looking at the results, at 23rd and 50th Frank and Andy don't seem to have been major players in the race - who or what are they blaming this time?

    Alberto Contador suspended until August 2012 (loses all results July 2010 - Jan 2012)

    I'm disappointed. I thought this would happen but still hoped otherwise. Can't really see how they could come to any other decision. I wouldn't call myself a Contador fan but will still consider him the winner of both the 2010 Tour and 2011 Giro, despite what the records might show...

    Tour de France 2013

    Perfect Grand Depart! Can we just skip 2012 season? Am already planning my trip back to Corsica and Bastia in particular. Roll on le Tour 2013! Sorry no constructive comments, it's just too damn exciting to think straight.

    The Real Football Thread

    Went to Parkhead 2 weeks ago and my God Celtic were dire. Rangers are just as bad. Another season of whoever is least bad, wins. So many people I know not renewing their season books for both sides. Don't know how some can keep going back to watch this dross.

    Geelong WC 2010: Women's Road Race Sat 2nd Oct

    Yeah, something that just stops me from getting too excited about Cooke as well. Thought Pooley looked so strong on the climbs and real easy, pulling away with half the effort of all the other girls, then riding 2nd wheel and marking every move after that. As someone else already said...
