  1. Cheers. Went out again yesterday late morning. Got soaked and really struggled coming back into the wind. 30 miles at 14mph. Pretty happy with that. Target for the Etape is 5 1/2 hours, which is challenging but achievable I think.
  2. First time out for three months yesterday. Managed fifteen miles, but was knackered at the end. My first shot at the Etape in May looks a long way off.
  3. I'm sure that's a quandry many tennis fans are in now. Great effort from Ward. Up to how Andy feels re the doubles. He might just fancy a crack at the Bryans. I don't think it really matters either way.
  4. First shot of my turbo yesterday. Better and less boring than I expected.
  5. Are those designed for a particular time of year or weather?
  6. Managed to get out for 35 miles over to Coalsnaughton and back yesterday. Cracking day for it, if a little windy on the way back.
  7. Yes. First couple are easy enough, but deciding on the last couple is difficult.
  8. Curb Seinfeld Bilko Blackadder Goes Forth Monty Python
  9. It has certainly been a factor in the seamless way we have been competitive since the start of the last two seasons after gaining promotion. This year I expected the manager to get rid of more players than he did, but I think he has correctly gone for keeping largely the same team, while bringing in two or three to strengthen our squad. In particular we have exactly the same back five as we had last season.
  10. Beat my fastest average speed for the twenty mile undulating route out past Fannyside Loch and back via Slammanan Road. 15.4mph. Hoping to go out with a local club next year for the first time if I can get a decent amount of riding/training through the Winter. I've heard if you can average 15mph on your own you could manage the slowest group. We'll see.
  11. Was that an electric bike Froome was on?
  12. But what damage would actually be done to a huge corporation like Sky if one of their riders actually got caught? They'd spin it, blame/pay off the individual, and carry on making loadsa money.
  13. Yep, disappointing. It's like when Armstrong dominated, you knew who was going to win before that start. Oh, wait......
  14. Am I right in thinking Kennaugh was originally a sprinter? Or have I made that up?
  15. Early days of course but I thought the overall quality of players for East Fife today looked worse than last year, certainly in midfield and attack. Having said that as a team they worked hard enough, and they may yet develop into a decent side. Stewart looks like he'll be a good signing, neat and tidy, worked away well. Can't really judge a defence on one performance. Edited to add: (1) Good support from the Fifers for an away pre-season friendly. (2) WTF has McNeil got his hair tied up/back for?
