And the Itv4 commentary team includes David Millar, so we'll get beter insight into whats going on in the race. I like his style of commentary, back up with his years as a pro rider.

Last call for Fantasy teams on fantasy.road.cc - league pin is 76454.

Vuelta starts tomorrow with a sandy beach team time trial - I have a feeling it might be very near a piece of road Mr Dipper and I road down a few years ago, although with a different purpose (refreshments).

Can someone please stop me watching things like Giro D'italia, the Tour de France and the Vuelta.

It's making me think about buying a bit of push iron and I can't afford it, but some of the roads near me are great for riding bike.

How do you know, I guess you've tried it on in the past?

Is there something you want to tell us?

You don't need to wear Lycra, but you'll get fed up with flappy shorts slowing you down, due to their non aerodynamic properties.
