Ever wondered how?

May 13, 2013 by ifonlyiwerebelgian

Ever wondered how race leaders get a Jersey with their own team’s sponsors so quickly after the finish of a stage? Well now you know. There is a screen printer hidden away behind the podium. It only takes a minute and the rider is zipping up a shiny new newspaper colored jersey.

Another reason to love Pozzato!

…As if you needed another one. Just look…I mean look at those shoes. Pippos custom lampre merida sidis are just awesome! As are these pink and black lace ups worn by former Maglia Rosa Taylor Phinney. Both of these photos were stolen from an article on velonews solely about this year’s giro footwear. Go take a look see at what Adam Blythe puts on his feet. Clearly BMC are hoping his garish slippers will distract everyone from the fact that […]

Seasons change… eventually.

Out in the woods yesterday, tip toeing over the fresh green shoots of spring. Lovely run after work.

This is the chaos of a pro pit. 8 inches of slime and air thick with cold water vapour.

2 months off the grid.

February 28, 2013 by ifonlyiwerebelgian

(I put this post together a month ago… but forgot to publish it…. oops) If you’ve been paying attention, then you will have noticed my radio silence over the last few months. Lack of inspiration, writers block…laziness, call it what you will. I have been off the grid. Never fear though! I’m back and I will be posting regularly. For today, I figured I’d do a quick post about what i’ve been up to during my web absence. I don’t want to write […]

Tour Of Oman 2013 – Stage2 highlights.

Watch the video. If you can last the whole 3 minutes without getting giddy about the season ahead…then you are a stronger person than me!

Voss the boss!

February 10, 2013 by ifonlyiwerebelgian

The photo says it all really. One of the most succesful cyclists of all time, surrounded by a life’s worth of victory bling. When I grow up I want to ride like Marianne Voss!

Can’t have it….

January 23, 2013 by ifonlyiwerebelgian

I probably should apologize for my absence this long month but that is for another post (there is no dramatic reason, I had things to say, but I didn’t feel like saying them). I’l do a quick ‘where ive been’ and ‘what ive been up’ to post later this week. In the meantime I wanted to share with you some uber cool cross tech that just floated through the twittersphere; Helen Wyman’s ‘Team Edition Only’ Limus/XS hybrid tubulars from Challenge. They are […]
