Very much in the nascent stages of learning la vie Velominatus, however like many a young buck am eager to learn & accept the painful leassons with glee.

@ChrisO if you ignore the idiot on the bike & his commentary here’s an example »
@ChrisO the example provided by @The Grande Fondue is a little extreme but from late winter to early summer you’ll see many a Fred with them atop their heads to try to avoid nesting magpies swooping & pecking at them as they pass. Safe to say they sit… »

In other news Sestriere’s been stripped from today’s stage due to the poor conditions at the summit & on the descent. Valley road instead so they’re only doing the final climb. http://c-cycling.blogspot.cz/2013/05/giro-ditalia-stage-14-preview-favori… »
@mouse Didn’t Wiggo call himself soft? I’m assuming that’s what he meant when he said he’d been descending like a bit of a girl… »

@ChrisO yeah it’s crazy, a few years back one of the masters riders here got done (they do some testing during the masters games). Dumbest thing is he was a GP who was getting scripts written/writing them out with another doc in his practice who also race… »

How this video hasn’t made it in yet is beyond me…Cunego & Sagan giving a descending masterclass in the 2011 TdS. »

@Bianchi Denti unfortunate part of last night is that Uran’s g/f (if he has one) doesn’t appear to be on twitter…was kinda looking forward to #wagwars version 2. »

@Chris My preferred term is ‘according to the twitters’, as it shows just the right amount of cynicism about the source of the material. »
@Chris Is it just me or does that guy bear a striking resemblance to JVS? »
@G’rilla according to the twitters, he’s just reached 3k from the summit »
@G’rilla cracked on the first climb…kinda bridged & then got shelled real quick. He’s done. »
motherfucker! 3 of the top 5, but all in the wrong order. »

Looks like the Storm Troopers just got themselves a new leader to march for. »

Hmmm, I wonder if the Colombians can just shrug the shoulders & say ‘sorry, didn’t understand the radio call’ as opposed to Froome-dog being called back last year. »

@snoov it’s not too bad at the moment (I’m staying up to watch the Giro anyways), especially given I can kinda go straight back to sleep when he wakes during the moment. Having this month off makes it a little less taxing too. »

@the-farmer Maybe call it a ‘Triple Crown’ & then a couple of decades later you’ll hear about some douchebag buying off teams so they don’t attack him in the last one…sounds kinda familiar to be honest. »
@Mikael Liddy's posts:
@snoov half right. You only get a donut, there’s no drop in to the negative. »

@napolinige Jaysus, can’t imagine trying that in the wet. Anyone who attacks down that has stones the size of cannonballs. »
@Ron here’s my compromises with the VMH on the ‘safety’ wear when riding in the dark (or at least starting/finishing in it). Rapha’s pink brevet gilet & the yellow DeFeet oversocks, they still look good (in my opinion) and they’re bright enough to … »
@mouse To be honest I’d query whether Cuddles will be able to back it up to lead the Tour given the effort involved in competing in the Giro. Bertie couldn’t keep up in the last week of the ’11 tour after his casual jaunt through the Italian countryside… »
