Jo on loan, Benjani and Evans will be sold. Elano is a midfielder. We'll have
Adebayor, RSC, Robinho, Tevez, Bellamy, Bozhinov and Petrov competing for wide/attacking positions.
it will be interesting to watch the city experiment develop. Hopefully you don't beat arsenal though. But the prem needs a shake up. I hope terry does go to Man city as i hate chelsea. I want to see them crumble as the russian loses interest and wants his money back! I liked hughes at blackburn but i can see these stars all being abit to big for marky boy. Mr mourinho will be lined up and put into place next season if hughes fails big..
i still think arsenal should of stuck somone like fatboy johnson or richards in on an exchange plus cash for ade?

You'll have an extra 22 minutes or so as it's later in the year next year (and therefore sunrise will be later. But more night riding as it'll get darker earlier.
I think that should be possible 5:50am with a knee problem and stopping for any excuse towards the end as i was about to cry with each revolution. I'm going to get some Garman action too as Brun's kept us on route to start with. Next year sunrise will be seen. I hope!

Dunwich was fab..started off on my own getting out of the fields took a while. Then bumped into Brun who had some good pace to ride with until my right knee was tweaking and i had to slow up. Those 40-50 miles were a pleasure sir. Was out on my own again after the stop. Was fun trying to work it all out a few wrong turns or trying latch onto a garmen rider or a tail light. Steff who got me through the last few miles as both had one buggered knee. Thanks to Middleofnowhere (matt) who saved the day with a coach ticket for me & dropout.
I'm up for a forum coach for next year either that or B&B get pissed or cycle home. Whatever happened to the my little pony jersey?
I'm seeing a physio tomorrow as walking is painful on lateral side of my right knee. A little rest is needed so no bike for abit :( My fault for not resting it after Brighton the week before when it first started. Balls.
Bring on next year..I'll be there for sunrise next time! More prep & less hungover too.

Did anyone else witness the mad overtake? Somewhere round Reigate I think. I think it was a taxi that decided to overtake a car that was overtaking us. It drove clean up onto the pavement which could only have been just about wide enough to fit and flew down it at 30-40 mph. Not as if the roads were busy, stunning level of impatience, you almost have to respect such bad decision making, almost.
yeah i saw that as we come down the one-way system reigate..thought i was seeing things or i was in some movie thankfully he got through without causing injury. I think his taxi took a beating though! Fucking dick.
Good ride guys! I'm a little red from passing out on the beach. I'm a little tired today too. Thanks Oliver & Damo & other backstop who is moving to back the midlands(sorry i've forgotten your name).
Good times!
