Great. Thanks for the advice. The pictures are particularly helpful.

Interesting. I wonder whether they have made more than one model. Seems hard to square just fitting a 25 and also fitting a 28. Maybe a trade off between tyre height and width driven by rim width?

Am I right to think that the PDW are useless if you want to run either 25 or 28mm tyres? Those are too big to fit under the 30mm PDW yet the larger size PDW are way too big. Correct?

This is incredible. I thought the ft sportive a few years ago was the peak of the cycling is the new golf story. I was wrong. EC1 must be it.

Surely trump is the least likely president to get shot. All the crazies are voting for him. They like him. Hilary on the other hand..

So next year is echelons from the get go. Looks brutal. Norway in September, weather could be tough.

You'll need to get the lease extended as part of the sale process. Without an extension v difficult to get a mortgage. But you probably already knew that.

Looks lovely.

The David Walsh column about Wiggins in today's Sunday times is pretty unflinching. Can definitely see more scepticism heading Wiggins' way.

Would have thought your mortgage provider would want to see proof of building regs before it lends you money.

It is very nice. And a good size. But also far, far from cheap thanks to the brexit hammering the pound has taken.

Edit - out of curiosity why are you selling faffe?

That's quite saddening. But an obvious response to the occasional thoughtless comment one hears 'why not abolish drug rules and let sportspeople take whatever they want'

Top tube length?

Bravo skinny. Incredible comeback after getting sick.

Skinny is still hammering out the miles but Neil and Carlos are matching him. It's going to come down to who can stay awake most in the next 48hrs.

Basically utterly dominant. A clear day ahead of the rest of the field.

By what sort of margin has Allagaert won prior editions of this race?

Skinny closing in on 6th place. Albeit current holder of 6th seems to have had a proper long sleep stop so should be able to crank his speed up once he gets going today.

Incredibe stuff from skinny. At a guess he has been the fastest rider by a considerable margin since he restarted. Surely this surge will cost him in a day or two though?

He has done 300k with 16000m of climbing in a day?! Christ alive that's some pedalling.

Skinny roughly 150k off tenth place. Amazing surge back up leaderboard.

Looks like Neil Phillips has done some good routing. Is 5k ahead of skinny yet has apparently riden 75k less and done less climbing. If accurate, smart.

Do any of the various tracker websites report stopped time? As the race evolves will be useful to know who has managed to grab a few hours sleep and which people are putting themselves deep into sleep deficit.

Makes you wonder why porte left sky. Sure he was never going to get a crack at the tour being on the same team as froome but equally he must have realised that to beat froome you need a strong team to support you. Maybe BMC promised they would sign riders to support him?

Without team support Porte's best hope is in the giro or vuelta. Which he could have ridden as the supported rider at sky.

Froome is being quoted as saying this is the strongest team sky have ever put into the tour.

Certainly looks like that at the moment.
