10.63 miles, 2,360 feet, 3 hours 43 minutes: drills and speed work in Borrans Park, then Wansfell Pike. Very overcast; I did not take note of the...

Yes. But being a grand old man of French cycling way past his best and around an hour down on the leading teams who had other priorities gave him...

He was super - the way he organised his sidekick. Got to say that chasing back were useless though.

I agree. A fantastic watch on the stage highlights yesterday. I don't think I've seen a leading rider looking behind as much as he did. Either he...

4x 6mins at 6.45mmp off 3min rests on the track last night. First session for months without nails in my knee.

Julian Alaphilippe. Chapeau, sir!

11.06 miles, 2,780 feet, 3 hours 27 minutes: Loughrigg trails, ascending via Fox Ghyll, going down the race route from the top to the road at High...

Its certainly a toughie. That climb up to Causey Pike takes longer than you feel it should!

I've been doing this for about 10 year - it started as a nit of fun with a few old club mates. I just like to do the normal competition as it adds a...

EMOM press-ups routine. 10 reps (floor to lock to floor) press-ups, every minute, for 10 minutes. 46 - 46 - 46 - 45 - 46 - 46 - 46 - 42 - 42 - 42

Press-ups with a bar, EMWM for 20 minutes, sets of 15. So 300 in total.

Thanks WP. I've had a look at the Stage Hunter competition and I'm in 18642nd place out of 19055 so I don't think I'll bother!:rolleyes:

10.68 miles, 3,010 feet, 3 hours 43 minutes: Wansfell Pike twice, the first ascent being via High Skelghyll Farm, the second from the upper part of...

I was looking at the profile for Tuesday/Wednesday next week :rolleyes: Llani - you can make subs, but they only count in something called the...

Another great night, apart from my woeful performance. However as in 2022:- "I was lucky and found a good line to and from the last checkpoint,...

There might be, but I never have. There are different levels of competition. Will have a look later.

WP, Do you know if there is an option to substitute/replace riders or add another if you have a few euros left?

Although Valentin would also have been a good bet!

Choirs are well known for being a "good" way of spreading Covid. Whatever it is, good luck with it. My partner had Covid last week from car...

EMOM press-ups routine. 12 reps (floor to lock to floor) press-ups, every minute, for 10 minutes. Secs remaining for each of the 10X 1 min sets. ...

10.35 miles, 2,607 feet, 3 hours 3 minutes: Loughrigg trails. Overcast with the main cloud base at about 2,000 feet; banks of cloud/mist below that....

Damn. Already lost Michael Woods so losing Kooij is going to hurt my final tally. Should have gone for more Ineos with hindsight but Aurélien...

Enjoy. My favourite and probably one of the toughest AMs there is. Great running throughout but the run in to Buttermere from Eel crag is another...

Also, does anyone know if the camping referred to in the race info is on an established open to all campsite or a field available just for the race...

I have been reading this thread as part of my preparation for this years race, which I have not done before, as it is the 4th Championships counter....

OK guys the end of week 1 review. First though a brief mention for Cav. A good win in a Tour of Hungary Stage this week with Groenewegan in 2nd...

Who cares that you will be slower. Just getting around 40 years later will be a great achievement.

Perhaps you'll feel better as I'm skipping core-ex totally today, so even more feeble :)
