That helps to explain a lot of these off and on days we see in cycle racing.<br /> Doping isn't past history either. It's merely shifted? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9188#post-95477 Thu, 03 Jan 2013 00:04:00 +0000 SRD 95477@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Just finished the guardian TdF book. Was a gift. Hadn't really wanted it. Turned out o be a really good read. Now off to finish 'a race for madmen'. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9188#post-95424 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 13:04:33 +0000 SRD 95424@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>No, thisis a different one. Mostly rehashed from their highlights coverage, but with sme good intro stuff and analysis. Sounds like sky got 'special' access for theirs. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9188#post-95405 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 12:04:18 +0000 Cyclingmollie 95405@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The Year in Yellow? I thought that was really interesting. Lots of good moments: Brailsford biting his lip and leaving Sean Yates to shout at Froome for attacking Wiggins; the unbelievable attention to detail in the hotels and in training. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9188#post-95395 Wed, 02 Jan 2013 00:17:21 +0000 SRD 95395@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Anyone else checked out 'wiggo's tour' on itv? </p> <p>Having spent the days since Christmas reading 3 diff TdF books, I thought t would be orh a watch. Interesting to see it after-the-fact. I'd watched a fair bit f the coverage, but it made a lot more sense ths time. I'd really only gotten hooked on the day with the tacks, so it was quite interesting to see some for the earlier stages, when I'd t been paying a lt f attention. </p>
