I'm a cheapskate to!

 

You can add your bike and it's weight under "my gear" and your weight under your profile. You can find all of this if you go into "settings".

Cheers. I had no idea (obviously). I'll get on to it later

How do you go about following people on Strava, or inviting people to follow you?

Thank you miss.

 

Now just need people to divulge their usernames.

Up early in the morning and heading to lake como and the madonna del ghisallo. Cant wait. Not the hardest climb 11k at an average of just over 5% but she is the patron saint of cyclists and the museum at the top has bikes from coppi, merckx and pantani.

 

A few km up the road is the muro di sormano. Not sure about that one, its only open to cyclists which is great, but its 2km at 17% which is not so great.

Chaos at the end of the first stage on the Tour De France.

 

Crash near the end because of a bus blocking the end, so caused confusion at whre the finish would be. Cav can't win now.

Hadnt realised that I'd already set My Profile but for some reason My Bike details wont load. Never mind, I'll have to see if I can sort it later. Nice and warm here but very windy

Thirty miles along the Devon coast in the sunshine today; fuck you, world.

Arrived late yesterday so didnt get to ride but made up for it today with a climb from bellagio to the church dedicated to cyclists at madonna di ghisallo. Beautiful views across lake como as the priest delivered his homily to the mass of riders outside. Have that devon coast.

Life aint so bad!

 

I havent managed to get out in the last week or so. It was fantastic just getting out in the sunshine again. I love spotting 'the walk of shame' on Sunday morning rides round town

Is that a formal request?

You can keep your hill and your kiddy fiddler. I had a scone and a pint: WIN.

Just taken delivery of 2 swanky bike carriers (on sale at CRC) for us to take our bike with us on holiday. Cycling in the sun. Cant wait

Tried and failed the muro di sormano. Its less than 2km but with an average gradient of 17% and a max of nearly 30% it was all a bit much. I need a much smaller gear and stronger legs.

That's some work they've been doing the last few weeks though

50k before breakfast before the sun gets too high. Fabulous riding on great roads, minimal traffic and wall to wall blue sky. I could get used to this

[L19red]

Never mind the distance, how much ascending? Mottarone is next up for me 1200 metres ascent starting from stressa on lake maggiore. Then it's on to the alpe d'huez for the tdf stage.

[Lario]

Have a 180k charity cycle tomorrow along with 8000 others. Supposed to be blue skies and near 25 degrees!

 

Only target being set by myself is to gt it done!

 

So hopefully I'll check back in if I'm still alive!

[L19red]

At this late stage the only advice I can give is take painkillers with you. If its not your legs it will be your arse or your shoulders and neck but something will hurt . whereabouts are you riding?

[Lario]

The Ring Of Kerry.

 

I'll take that painkillers advice!

Beautiful, good luck.

Oh, just a few hundred metres. As I sit here by the pool Mr Champ has headed inland into the hills. Tomorrow, maybe

Damn! Puts my 50 mile Liverpool-Chester & back into perspective!

 

God speed!
