But you love cycling over the peaks towards Derby and Notts!
Pray for Jacobsen
to and fro for next few months
Geshcke doing it again. Heās got to have a great day to secure that jersey. Would be a fantastic result.
After yesterdayās effort, this is going to be really tough for him.
Those QAV boys work hard for their sprinters!
My wife likes his massive beard - if he put on a nice blue, chunky Arran jumper, he could pass for a fisherman.
#PrayForFabio - good hashtag, that
Iāve cycled to Derby twice from here, itās a hideous 200km hill-fest.
To Worksop (via Sheff) would probably be best (train home)
Still a long, long day!
Itās a good route that Notts one - you can watch the start, head out to Lowdham, then Southwell, then either Edwinstowe or Mansfield
Got a feeling Iām away.
I think the Pyrenees are more scenic than the Alps.
Could be in Wales for all I know
Looks like theyāre descending from Capel Curig to Beddgelert to me.
Whaaat are you talking about TP?!
Those mountains are gorgeous. So much bigger and more dramatic than Snowdonia!!! Iāve just been looking into the area as a future holiday option. San Sebastian on the coast looks lush, Biarritz not too far away. Maybe will have to wait for a 2 weeker when the girls are older. Few days on the coast and a few days up in the mountains.
May have to get planning and working on Mrs GB!
Pfft.
Bigger not always better.
Loads of stuff in the Lakes, too.
Or the Peaks.
Look at the state of that road now.
Itās roughAF
(Now itās smoother than silk )
Cycling uphill for an hour is shit.
Utterly shit.
So is descending for half an hour.
Maybe itās good when you can practise it at home, but weāve got max 20 minute climbs here.
Yes and no. I have visited places like that before. Iāve not been properly into the high mountains (other than skiing) and the massive vistas that they offer. I couldnāt GAF what the roads are like! Iām not talking about riding a bike, i mean a holiday with the famkily.
Letās have a long range attack please Pog
How dare you talk about not riding a bike on a cycling thread
2 JV feeders not giving G a bottle on the side of the road, marginal gains
TJV not wanting to give G a water bottke!!
First refusal Iāve seen all tour.
Ha ha ha
Chatting about it now.
Why is WvA riding so hard???
Surely he has to drop back soon?
Bad Karma
Pog!
