Argh :( I'm not surprised though, the finish seemed a bit mental. Very tight and twisty.

hi Bruce, was up in the isle of Arran the other week it was full of cyclists they do a route around the isle, looked really hard going to somebody as unfit as myself.
Got talking to a few of them said lots do it for charity rides some lovely scenery as they go about and the motorists are for a change accommodating to them, all different ages as well.
might be worth looking at for yourself.

If he had fallen 200 meters further, he would have had no problem. (3K rule)


Now:
149 ITA Domenico Pozzovivo ALM +3'25"

Sods law isn't it? He was probably never really a challenger anyway, but I like Pozzo, largely on account of him being about my size.

Definitely mate. I know it's not quite the Hebrides, but the other half has been trying to get my up to that part of the world for a bit. Not all that hilly, but super windy I understand, and very pretty indeed. Shall be in Fort William tonight, which will hopefully do, but am hiking rather than riding.

Sounds good that. Shall definitely look into it.
 

Quite pathetic that; Froome keeps trying to contact the team car. At least try and make a decision for yourself; ride ffs. Take your responsibility. Ride with the one who was won all three the GT's. He doesn't know what to do himself; come on now.
 
Meanwhile this absolute cretin, with no front brakes who killed a woman, still doesn't get that he was in the wrong. Quick recap, bikes in the U.K. without a front brake are illegal. The police should crush any found on our roads......
