A Place to idle the day away talking about anything you fancy. Expect to find cycling and non cycling topics inside

Further exploration of his site reveals Mr DeCanio to be an aficionado of Call of Duty Black Ops played on XBox and favouring the Spaz as weapon of choice. Running about hosing everything in sight with a shotgun sums up his approach.

Battlefield 3 is a more precise, thoughtful game, as any fule kno:

However if a testosterone patch would have added 2mph to my Dragon Ride average speed (shaving an hour off my time) while shrinking my knob enough to prevent male-pattern numbness by the end, then I'm all for it

Mr. Di Canio? Are you referring to the manager of the excellent football team?

Dombo I'd expect more, are you turning.

"But finally the last thing I’ll say to the people who don’t believe in cycling, the cynics and the sceptics. I'm sorry for you. I’m sorry that you can’t dream big. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles. But this is one hell of a race. This is a great sporting event and you should stand around and believe it. You should believe in these athletes, and you should believe in these people. I'll be a fan of the Tour de France for as long as I live. And there are no secrets - this is a hard sporting event and hard work wins it.

Well, [url=http://www.sportsscientists.com/2012/07/tour-in-mountains-analysis-discussion.html]an analysis of the numbers[/url] or [url=http://www.itv.com/tourdefrance/news/cult-cycling-hero-jens-voigt-talks-to-ned-boulting/]the opinion of Jens (video)[/url] suggest not. Or that if he is on the juice it's nowhere near as effective as it used to be back in the late 90s/early 2000s (mentioning no names)

It's a shame they didn't interview Frank at the same time as Jens. It would have made Jens opinion more valid

Bernard Hinault, gave his very pesonal view: "I don't f***ing care. It's his problem not mine. It's a problem that should have been solved 10 or 15 years ago and that wasn't."
