  1. @BeachyBooks I suppose the welfare of cyclists and their tyres here on the #isleofwigt is the last thing on the Council's minds...
  2. @MintyMat I thought the gravel stuff was like a primer or undercoat but I see they've marked the lines on these roads now
  3. @ScrappySPJ @mintymat Relaid with what though? Marbles???!
  4. Newchurch and Knighton have terrible road surfaces. Busy cut through road too don't understand why that one appears to be ignored
  5. The same road however heading east towards Smallbrook is in a terrible state. But it looks like that section is being left... Madness
  6. Some sections didn't need to be relaid at all - Top of Ashey Down heading west... The old surface was fine
  7. What is going on with these relaid roads on the #isleofwight? Grey gravel? Hardly an improvement. It's like cycling through treacle
  8. Had a positive experience with a Wightlink member of staff... Later today, Gaddaffi steps down and peace in the middle east
  9. Thought for the day this morning on radio 4 was absolutely rubbish
  10. @Richard_Legge Chuffed for Van Summeren. Unbelievable effort from Cancellara too. Did you see the crashes?! Nasty!!
  11. Really sad sight at the #Grandnational with Ornais and Dooneys Gate fatalities. Terrible falls. Thoughts to all connected
  12. Someone made a tidy packet flogging all those scarves for what looks to have turned out to be a pretty pointless campaign.
  13. Not so much green and yellow at Old Trafford these days... Have Man Utd given up on ousting the Glazers then??
  14. @timwiggins1 Will check them out, cheers for tip
  15. Carbon bottlecages... Is there really any point??
  16. @timwiggins1 Flu - hideous! Feel for you mate. Not been out for 3 weeks, feels like all the winter miles have been lost :(
  17. Very jealous of everyone riding in this weather. Knacked my leg playing cricket and am incredibly frustrated...
  18. What is the craic with Eurosport and its scheduling? Supposed to be cycling on at 10 - but again it's been barged off by tennis and F1
  19. @ProfBrianCox @BBC_Wonders Congratulations on a fantastic series. Excellent
