Wiltshire Rhino Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I want to see Chris Froome on top of the podium in Paris again but I really hope his GC rivals give it a real go and pressure him in the Alps. I'm sure he'll deal with it though. 2014 Challenged Cup Winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GURNER Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Afraid I in team "one man, one bike" now. Getting a bit silly being able to kick your team mate off his to further your progress. Should be up to the team car to repair or replace damaged bikes. It is the top teams that can do it because their teammates aint too far away. A lesser team does not have that luxury. It may even things up a tad rantette over Caught by a feckin speed camera. try these I did and it saved me a heap o money and penalty points.

Bleep1673 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 There was a big, horrific crash during the Womens Road Race at the Olympics, where the Dutch leaders fractured Lumber Spinal Vertabre, This is happening more and more. Does anyone on here think this might be due to the radio packs they have to wear, could these not be relocated below the saddle?

Rocket Science I've not heard any suggestions that it's leading to more spinal injuries but it won't have been a factor in this case. Radio communication isn't permitted in the Olympic road race. I think there are very few events where it is. "I'm from a fishing family. Trawlermen are like pirates with biscuits." - Lucy Beaumont. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radios are in the jersey partly due to easy access by a mechanic if they have a problem with it. Also there was no race radio during the Olympics Road race. Only world tour races are allowed to use radios as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
