    I really like the Sportful Total Comfort bib shorts, top quality, I think they are better than my Castelli Free Aero bibs. http://www.bikeinn.com/bike/sportful-total-comfort-bibshort-black/59062/p?q=sportful%20total%20comfort. Wiggle price match Bike Inn if you want to order from Wiggle instead.

    Did the Ride London 99.7 in 4:18 which I was pleased with! I was in the first start wave at 6am so it was pretty rapid, the first 50 miles going in 2 hours. Couldn't keep up on the hills due to lack of practice so did the last 3rd in various smaller groups. For pretty much the first 50 miles...

    I don't think we did Fiddlers but the Tumble was nice. I was struggling with cramp so ended up just going up really slow. The hardest one was Caerphilly mountain at the end. Steep and knackered! I rented a Specialized Roubaix from Blazin' Saddles for around $50 for the day. It was great and...

    Hello all. Back from 3 weeks off work including 2 in USA! Came back on Thursday and did the Velothon Wales, managed to get a ride done in San Francisco which was incredible but the training probably wasn't ideal! SF ride: https://www.strava.com/activities/317069050 Velothon...

    112 miles yesterday to Brighton and back. Started with 14, the group split into 2 on the return leg and slowly the fast group lost people. I was hanging on until about 85 miles then lost it. Stopped, ate a flapjack and cycled slowly home! http://app.strava.com/activities/224420508 I keep...

    Been away the last couple of weeks so have only ridden the Hadrons a few times, but they are seriously good. Holding fast speeds is so much easier than on the Aksium's. They also look awesome.

    Entries are open for Ride London 100! I recommend everybody enter even if you need to come down and stay in a hotel the night before, it's excellent.

    Just bought some of these. I have been looking at them for a while and heard some today during the ride and they are incredible! They reckon they are the most aero wheels available on the market. http://www.swissside.com/shop/hadron-wheelset

    Biblically wet but still enjoyed it. Was going well with a couple of fast club members then I punctured! Managed to get onto some decent wheels on the way back to London though. http://app.strava.com/activities/178118148

    Some of the best segments are now unachievable! http://www.strava.com/activities/162899353#3782116246 41mph! In terms of watching the tour, the crowds were huge, I went to what I thought would be a quieter area in London but it was still 4 people deep. I was standing on the pavement and by...

    I want a world champion colour Boris Bike. I did get a year's free cycle hire and a pretty nice looking Hiplok though!

    So I ended up winning the Boris Bike race! I had to laugh as I was on the warm up lap because of how ridiculous the event was. Thousands of people watching me race a Boris Bike around Smithfield market. After 2 laps, it was obvious it would come down to 3 people, by the final corner there were 2...
