I'm bored now the season is over... View: https://twitter.com/Cyclingnewsfeed/status/1184046125181001728?s=19

Might be of interest to some - I've not looked through all of them yet, but I bet there is a black and white one of a rider looking exhausted, in a confined space (hotel room or press room) with one of the jerseys in the background :-)...

Amazing the speeds these guys get up to and it looks so casual and easy for them.. I’ve been watching the speed of pedal rotation they going at and l’m sure l go at a similar pedal speed but no way do l reach the speeds they do .. Can someone explain why these cyclist go so much faster at what...

Velogames isn't running it this year, so we've chosen Road.CC. Dayvo has set the league up as per below. I've pulled this out of the Tour De France thread where it was buried - We're doing the Purist league by the way, no transfers.

Everything you need know is here and here £150.00 to you. Just about covers what I spent on it. Based in South Oxfordshire, will pack and post.

I thought it was about time we started to speculate wildly about the Grand Boucle Shame that FroomeDawg won't be there but plenty of others in a seemingly open race. Quintana, a busted flush? Dumoulin, a flushing toilet? Bernal or Thomas for Ineos Pinot a better French hope than Bardet...

The tour is starting in Denmark in 2021 and there is a good chance it will come right past my house. Who is coming to visit :0)

The route will officially be announced on Thursday at 10am , English time. From what I have seen so far, I fail to see why it is still called TdF as the 2019 one will be mostly on the East and Pyrenees. I remember when the TdF used to cover most parts of France. By the way, there will be no...

As mentioned in the other thread I’ve made a start on mine. The bike is now a box of bits. From this to this. To this Can someone tell me if this (below) comes off and if so how ?

Enter here. Surprised nobody has started this yet as the CC League already has 5 other teams entered!

Hey guys :) I'm still in a pickle of setting up my 1940's Simplex Tour de France changer aka derailleur (this derailleur was called changer back in the old old days) and cycleops recommended me to ask someone on here who has messed with this type of derailleur before to get some tips and...

Time to start the speculation and soothsaying. Is Bardet good enough to provide France with their first home winner since the Dark Ages? Will Froomedawg be allowed to ride, keep his result, recover from the Giro? Will Thomas and Bernal be Plan B and C? Will Tom Dumoulin ride? Will Valverde...

Hey guys. I need some tips on setting up my 1940's Tour de France derailleur, as I've never set up one of these ''odd'' and ''different'' breed of animals; if you catch my drift. I know that this derailleur works with only three cogs in the rear, and I am wondering if it will work on my 80's...

I watched the mailman go by my house, opened the mailbox, saw a package in it, carried it into the house, opened it up and got a surprise. I got my 1940 era SIMPLEX Tour de France rear derailleur. I'm saving it for when I either find or build my own French Tour de France bike, and I will learn...

I just bought a 1930's (OR) 1940's era Simplex Tour de France derailleur from ebay last night and I am just wondering if anyone here has set one up before. I hear they're a pain to setup because of the push rod/plunger design. Mine is arriving in a few weeks (coming from a foreign country :=)...

Ahead on next week's route announcement, here is an excellent article making the case for less well known climbs to be included in the Tour; as is highlighted in the article there is the potential for the best French climbs in a Grand Tour next year being in the Giro d'Italia - Col Agnel, Col de...
