This is one of those ‘me trying to be helpful’ posts. First Up – STRAVA These are the riders who seem to have STRAVA profiles that you can follow. There are a few that are missed out, let me know if you know the STRAVA ID. Some of the watts are perhaps not…
Rouvy is an indoor cycling platform that allows riders to compete, virtually, over recognised race route against animated, 3D competitors Cyclerecon is a bike route video recording business. You can guess the synergy. Although Rouvy already has a 3000-strong route library, they will now be able to leverage (for free) CycleRecon’s UK library PLUS record…
This is a very clever product for high end cyclists looking to optimise thier racing positions. When combined with a DFPM Aeropod shows you CdA or DRAG
I can’t even blame an alcoholic stupor for inadvertently booking onto a cycling expedition across the Pyrenees.

The turbo-boosting, leg-spinning, granny rings of lactic fire are here and nearly ready for action. It seems very strange though, I have to admit. I seem to be turning my sweet-looking…
I finally managed a decent ride with the new bike yesterday. The main purpose was just to see how well, or not, it rode; as well as sneak in a few easy sprints. However with a couple of mates in tow it turned into an hour of ‘off-plan’ fun and we came back significantly more…
I still haven’t managed to have a meaningful ride on my 2018 bike. But I have spent several minutes gazing longingly at it hanging on one of my shed’s walls. I put on the ASSIOMAs and took some photos on Friday and then put them back onto my TT bike straight afterwards. Yes Sunday was…
