A good day for British cycling.

Froome retains the Tour de Romandie title. Cav wins the last stage of the Tour of Turkey and with it the green jersey and Simon Adam Yates wins overall.

Pretty amazing....I was out for the live stages, saw your post on getting home....but thought that'll be Samdy, giving the results, so didn't read it, as the highlights were on 7-9  Smiley

Froome actually beat Tony Martin in the TT.

Difficult to know how impressive Adam Yates' win is....given that it seems to be a mostly sprinters race, but he looked good going up some of those Turkish ramps, which are significant....

The Giro starts in 15 minutes. Take your mind off things by admiring the £10k TT bikes instead.

Just about all ads grow tiresome, with the possible exception of the Eric Cantona....Kronenbourg ad.

You'll be telling me you're bored of Vicenzo Nibali and Ivan Basso's, Sidi shoes ads, next.

A complete bugger....is it just bad luck? Martin fell off on the last bend of Liege Bastogne Liege, and everyone else just about managed to stay on in Belfast

We have the Women's Tour coming through Hertford tomorrow.

Expecting a massive crowd for it

We are watching it in Hertford, then cycling over for the finish in Welwyn Garden City


Just thought I'd let you know.

Is anyone going up to Yorkshire for the French version in July ?

That wind was a right bastard this morning.

Although, when the wind was behind it did help with some assisted PRs Smiley

One of the best things about the Giro is the fact that we get 3 weeks of the delectable Orla Chennaoui for our evening viewing, presenting the sky sports highlights. Great gal.
