I notice that some pros check under their arms to see behind
sadly my body gets in the way.

If I tried that I think I'd stack it into oncoming traffic, which would rather defeat the object of the exercise.

I nearly did that the other day. I was more concerned with watching behind me while crossing 2 lanes, signalling etc that I didn't notice the traffic in front of me had stopped.

Interesting. Anyone thinking of buying Tyler Hamilton's book?

Cycle surgery have 3 for £10 on inner tubes at the moment, especially good if you have deep carbon/V rims that need long valve tubes, these are normally £9 each and i just got 3 for a tenner!

It's on my Kindle to be read as soon as I've finished Riis, Bad Blood and From Lance to Landis.

Anyone see a pattern here?

Just created a Strava club for Overclockers UK forum :- http://app.strava.com/clubs/overclockers-uk-forum

You should be able to join hopefully from that link.

(If OcUK themselves have an issue with this then let me know and i'll delete the club).

Wow, you got told a few times!

I did search on Strava but the search option is useless, never finds anything.

Joined the existing one and deleted the one i created.

Added you guys to the description.
Also added "OcUK" to the start of the club name to make it more search friendly, but it doesnt seem to have helped much
