kloeden has just won tirenno-adriatico.
millar has figured well in the season opener, hammond is looking forward to milano-san remo.

who do you put on the front of your magazine?


and do you repeat an article about cornering?

I was just thinking how much better this cycling season would be if only I had fifty pages of bike reviews to ignore.

It's like when you used to write for it but even worse.

Contador - he won in fine attacking style and is on his way up by the look of things. Kloden wont figure in much else, hes inconsistent and a bit of a primadonna nancy boy type character. (other than that he's alright)



Forget I said this if he wins the Tour.

Well, it's a bit like a continental sportive magazine, just done really badly.
It also has bike 'reviews', like the afformentioned magazines, again done
really badly. Sometimes also includes 'bike racing' whatever that is.
Oh, and a REALLLY funny section at the back - honestly, missus, it has me in stitches...when I read it in the supermarket............

Who has just encountered a new fitness and sportive market, who creates a profit considerably more than this forum, or you in person?

Oh, and yes, it was a rhetorical question.

I don't even understand the rhetorical question. But CW is balls, regardless.
