I can step in for @<Tommy> in the #23 team tonight. Who’s captain, is it @berty bassett ?

If you send me the sign on link I will be there. Otherwise I will sign on to the #68 race and ride with them

Nick, with Tommy out - probably for a couple of weeks at least? - and me not 100% at the moment you would be most welcome to step into Team #23 but only if you want to and if the rest of team#68 are happy with that? We wouldn't want to muck up Team #68's race or mess with your team at this stage and upset anyone if that's what might happen though.

What do you and your #68 teammates think? We will be happy with whatever decision you guys want to take with it

The best thing about being born in 1970 is we got to fully enjoy the 80's In all it's fluorescent colours And our hair styles

Hmmm, I wish I could say the same thing about being born in the early 60's ... but the 70's were most definitely the decade that taste forgot!!!

Speaking for myself;

Tbh we've kind of expected this I think. At the moment we are solidly mid table, and not likely to get relegated or promoted whatever happens so it doesn't have a huge impact on us.

On the other hand you guys are pushing for promotion (in a higher league already) so I think it's a bit of a no brainer - we have a certain amount of rotation any way as we have 8 riders.

Can I associate myself with @mjd1988's comments

If we are short tonight then I can re-start my Zwift subs for a month and ride tonight if desperate. Just need to know before about 1 today as I normally ride in the afternoon when the relief carer is here. Rach supports the team and is happy for me to leave her for an hour in front of crap tv tonight

I know Burning legs is of a fine pedigree. But is any man worth sacrificing two packs of the dodgers!

I think this may call for some more negotiations!

I’m back home now. Looks like I’ve just pulled something rather than torn it so I’ll take that happily. They gave me a rather fetching going away present too!

Tissot became official time keeper for the Giro first time this year. So released a new watch. And the fact another Brit won a grand tour, I decided to try and get it. I got the 2018 TDF Tissot watch- 2018 good year for Brits

@<Tommy>

I think Bob should adjudicate on this excuse for not racing .

I offer a generous 5/10

I have a 2 Tissot's, Seastar 1000 and Visodate. I take my Seastar to local clock shop few weeks ago because the crown didn't lock to closed position anymore, thread was gone from the stem. Not for sure is my watch send to Tissot or where but it takes few weeks to have it back.

Didn’t you get a new watch in Australia last year?

 

[CXRAndy]

It was 2018 Randy, Tissot TDF. Its awaiting to be sent to Tissot for battery replacement and service (seals)

Im hoping in the future a nice Vuelta Tissot, when we get a Brit winning again

Just in case anyone missed this first time round. Also note points for first 3 at intermediates, not first 5
