Wasn't it live last year? Pretty hard to avoid how the race went if you like your cycling.

I asked someone yesterday what size their frame was when he had clearly typed medium in the description. I was speed reading and looking for a numerical size rather than a word ๐Ÿ˜ณ

Good luck london_lady.

Was at the race yesterday, it was really good. I thought they did a pretty decent job of filming it and showing it given the intended audience (those not 100% into cycling).

[2 mins of racing in 30 mins]

It might appear so, but they're working hard from the gun and it's a fight for position for the whole hour.

I meant air time not what the riders were up to.

My small claim to fame is to have ridden and (training)raced with Kristian House. Best night I ever had was when I got in a break with him and we lapped the field nearly 3 times. He was a gent and went through nice and steady like. Sometimes comes out on our chaingang rides on a wednesday, but all he does is make the rest of us look like plucked chickens, with his bloomin tan, not to mention his chiseled profile, poser!

Oh.
My smaller? claim to fame is training with a guy called Mike Olheiser an American guy that trained with Hincappie at the time. Went on to be National and World Masters champion and recently beat Armstrong in the Tour of Mexico.
These guys are awesome, what must the big time pros be like ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

I shot some video at Canary Wharf and have just got round to editing it (best viewed with sound)

London_Lady, it includes some brief shots of the supporting pro-am race so you can get an idea of what it's like

Some pictures here too
