We'll be in the ArtHub section of SpinLDN from Friday through Sunday. Do drop by and say Hi.
It's always good to meet more forumongers.

I'll be on the MassifCentral stand all weekend. Do come and say hi. Always good to meet new forumongers..

Howard

He's not on the start list that's doing the rounds at the moment.
Probably had a look at those first few stages and thought 'fuck that'.

No Brits on the Giro StartList.

Here's a look how the whole race profile for this year compares with 2014. A lot of mountains up front. The sprinter's ranks could be a bit reduced by the time they hit the flat stuff mid-race..

@fizzy.bleach
It's Rob Hatch.

@5awyr - thanks for the compliment on the MassifCentral stuff. Super busy today - I've never done so much talking in all my life. Had a great response. Going to slip over to see the bikes first thing tomorrow.

Tour de Yorkshire is available for pre-order now.. Stage and GC winner details will be added before printing and shipping in early May. It's A3, £35 unframed, £65 Framed.

We are at the Bespoked show in Bristol this weekend - on the first floor in the Arnolfini Gallery.

If you are visiting - do come and say Hi.

@smeear - I'm here already so I can't help with the car-pooling.. but swing by @massif_central stand in the Arnolfini and say Hi. I'll be there all weekend - except when i dash over to Brunel's Old Station to look at the bikes.

@photoben - looking forward to your excellent photos of our lovely stand (!)

@Grubbythumb - likewise, stop by and say Hi. Who is your son?

..which means our Spring Classic Collections is complete.
Usual forum offers apply.

We are working on Tour de Yorkshire print and trying to come up with a way of making an Hour Record graphic look interesting!

Liege-Bastogne-Liege print is available online now..
Available in Classic Black or "Ardennes Forest" Green..

Very surprised there's not a lot more posts for Richie Benaud.

Hopefully everyone who appreciated him is out in the sunshine playing a slow game of cricket.
I missed his commentary already, I will really miss it now..

Yep!. Thought that was you - good to see you..

Was home (Blackheath) bound via the Isle o' Dogs

50% or more off at Kilver Court? What is this false God? It's heresy I say.
We must re-purify ourselves. All together now:

"Our Rapha, who are wrought in N7.
Hallowed be thy signature armband detail.

Thy new collections come,
Our credit card will be done
On your website as it is in your Cycle Clubs.

Give us this day no daily discount code.
And facilitate our desire to FKW,
As we forgive those who wantonly mismatch your jerseys with inferior shorts.

And lead us not into Richmond Park without at least your bibs, base-layer, jersey, soft-shell and gilet.
But deliver us from the evils of coveting our clubmate's Grand Tour shoes.

For thine is The Suffering,
the B&W photography and the Glory.

For Ever and Ever.

H-van."

Thanks @jim1985 - postage for a unframed print is £3.50 in the UK but with an 'lfgss' discount it basically works out as free postage..

Thanks @youramericanlover. Hopefully we will be able to do a full range of Classics next year. Showing the wind at GW would have been brilliant. I reckon that E3 would have been a great seller too this year..

New print for Paris Roubaix week!
Available in B&W as well..
As usual - drop me a line for a 10% LFGSS discount code

I didn't ride it this year - a friend did and said the weather made it the hardest of the 5 he's done.. Getting there and back in a day from London probably didn't help either..

My company have been working on some "Spring Classics" prints. If anyone fancies one drop me a line and I'll send you a 10% discount code..

Edited comment as it was at least ten pages out of date...

Our Ronde Van Vlaanderen print is in the webstore now.. The yellow version is my favourite of the whole series. £35 for unframed A3, £65 framed.
Drop me a line for a 10% discount code to improve these prices..

Thread dredge.

From Twitter:
"Extremely sad to announce that aprox 8.10am Steve was ridden into by a moped Steve tried to carry on but stopped in Wellington. He was collected by one of the team and taken to hospital. He has 2 broken bones in his ankle and is currently in plaster. Is looking highly likely that he will require an operation to have a plate and screws. That is all the information available at the moment."
DAMN.

Second to Thomas taking an amazing double, Paolini's win was a great result. Ettix-Misstep blundering again, Geraint looking stronger and more confident every race and Paolini winning with style (except for the aforementioned hoods), grace and deference. "It is the best win of my career. Next week I'll be working for Alexander again."

That Geraint crash pic needs to find its way into the Dropout Drops In thread..

Bored whilst waiting for GW to start on Eurosport.. Wrote a song:

"Brad's electric,
His chainrings were sometimes eccentric.
But he he did something we never expected
when he won Le Tour.
He's got a scooter,
a rather considerable hooter
and a collection of very sharp suits, sir.
But he still wants more.

And he wants you to know
He's got his mind made up now.
He just needs more time.
But he wants a chance to say
"I've just won fucking Roubaix!"
But he needs more time..
Coz he'll be road and he'll be track.
He'll change his goals, then change them back.
There's lots and lots for him to do:
The cobbled Classics and the Rio Olympics too.

He's got a knighthood
Because he can ride a bike right good.
He could win over the pavé and shite mud -
but only if he believes in himself.
He's got huge power
He's gonna put it all into 'The Hour'
Because he quite fancies a shower
of records on his shelf.

And he wants you to know
He's got his mind made up now.
He just needs more time.
But he wants a chance to say
"I've just won fucking Roubaix!"
But he needs more time..
Coz he'll be road and he'll be track.
He'll change his goals, then change them back.
There's lots and lots for him to do:
