wykikitoon 16628 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Rest day today, after the fun of this week, someone has to be lifted. Nibbles is looking like Lance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34422 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Nearly overcooking that final corner yesterday ffs. Bit gutted Contador is out, feels like Nibali is gonna have to have a shocking day at some point to make it interesting. Didn't he look completely out of form a month or so ago too.

Gemmill 34422 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I'm all about getting cheapish gear atm. It's insanely expensive some of the stuff you can get. I reckon those fifteen pounders could have some waffa thin bollock protection though, go with the Tenn ones imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34422 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 I want to see Slaying the Badger. The 30 for 30 stuff is all up on US Netflix, so hopefully it goes up there straight away. Its on ESPN over here on the 27th, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wykikitoon 16628 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Also bought tickets to see the Revolution Series at the Manchester Velodrome in March. Sweet, its a great nice. One of the best docu's I have seen is Pantani Accidental death of a cyclist. Very emotional and moving film. One of my heroes growing up as a kid.

Gemmill 34422 Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 There's this Strava segment heading out of my estate which only 30 odd people have done so I'm targeting it to try and get a KOM, but I keep just falling short. I was 1 second off it tonight. it's doing my head in. I normally do it first thing in the morning so there's no one there to watch my ridiculous efforts, but I was bombing past people walking their dogs tonight looking a right cunt!

One segment I aint KOM on, but I am ahead of Laurens Ten Dam, Lars Boom and a couple of other Belkin lads. The only difference. My HR is 178, theirs c100. depressing. I once got the dreaded Uh Oh! Email where it tells you I had a KOM taken off me. I opened it sweating and saw that Joe Moses (he rides for Rapha) had taken one of my KOMs, no chance Ill get that back!

I'm scrapping for this one on my estate, and consoling myself with the fact that the kid who has it is younger and lighter than me. I'm the fastest of the old fatties that have done it. It's mental though, Strava reckons I'm hoping out 238w for less than 2 minutes to try and beat this segment, and at the end of that I'm Fucked and need a rest. These blokes average 400w over the course of an entire tour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My FTP is a wopping 297, I am chuffed to bits with that I lad took my KOM the other night, so went and took it back, its too addictive man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
