Amazing for Cav to get another win. Especially after the first few days pushing to barely beat the broom wagon.

I was thinking on stage one that he may as well Jack in. 

 

I was watching the final few kms yesterday on the bus. When he one I let out a yelp and then started to cry 😂

Break out the lead lined sample jars.  Pogi has gone thermo nuclear!

Fuck me.  Froome was a fucking saint compared to this cunt.

Armstrong himself has said he needs to cool it down. Gamer knows a gamer, you know wha I'm sayin?

 

Pogi himself said he was doing 7w/kg. I mean what's next? 8?

 

You had Pollit, an 80kg rider pulling on a HC climb over 2000m dropping pure climbers!!!!

@wykikitoon or anyone that knows :) 

 

My bike (Carrera crossfire 2) has 700 tyres on and the recommended PSI says 50-85.

 

I just leisure riding on normal pot hole bumpy roads. When I got it a few weeks ago the tyres were less inflated and the bumps were less noticeable. Then a few days ago, I was advised to inflate to virtually max (80 psi). Following rides was a lot more bumpy.

 

Im told too low more risk of punctures, too high more bumps. Is there a sweet spot for my tyre size / leisurely riding or is it just trial and error?

Yeah, it’s in between too high and too low 👍🏻

Sell the bike. You know you want to. New hobby has lost its shine. 🙂 


How dare you! DIY tools, fishing rod and metal detector are all still here. 
 

As it happens, there’s a whole world of bike accessories to keep me entertained for at least a few weeks longer :lol:
