Is This Legal?

September 12, 2010

I haven’t heard of Cav being fined for bunny hopping across the finish line in Stage 13 of the Vuelta, but I’m guessing UCI officials were frantically digging through their rule books trying to find which regulation had been violated. It’s great to see Cav bringing some spark and showmanship back into the peloton. This […]

Tour de France Gallery by Mike Hone

July 30, 2010

Okay, I promise this is my last post about the Tour de France for another 330 days. I just had to share this sensational photo gallery from Australian photographer Mike Hone. Mike is originally from Sydney but is working in the United States as a designer for Adobe. He was lucky to get his first […]

Au Revoir TdF!

July 26, 2010

I hope this spoiler didn’t come as a surprise to anyone I always feel so empty the morning after the Tour de France finishes. Tired, used and beaten up. This year is worst than most. After being there in amongst it all and understanding what the hype is all about I’ve become even more of […]

Stage 17 - Col du Tourmalet

July 23, 2010

I’ve arrived safely back here in Melbourne and it seems like a lifetime ago that I was riding the exact same roads as the stage that just took place. I was able to see the first 50km of the race from Singapore airport but the rest of the details are a mystery to me. From […]

Stage 16 - Lance’s Final Dig

July 21, 2010

I’m sad to say that this is our last day in France for the 2010 Tour. I’m usually ready to go home after a month of being away, but this has gone by so fast and we’re just getting settled into one of the most beautiful places in the world - the Pyrenees. We had […]

What You Missed This Morning…On Mont Ventoux!

July 16, 2010

I’m sure most of you have seen thousands of photos and video of Mont Ventoux and feel as though you’ve ridden it yourself. In any case, I thought I’d share a few more with you after my ride up there today with a ripper of a headache (I have to thank Mrs CT for stepping […]

Stage 9: Cadel’s Tour In Ruins

July 14, 2010

Stuey, Lancaster and Lloydy lining up at the start in Morzine I was lucky enough to catch the start of Stage 9 today from Morzine. I reckon the start of the race is just as amazing to watch as the finish. The riders are all just hanging out, chillin’, and mingling. Along with the whole […]

Le Tour Baby! - Stage 8, Morzine-Avoriaz

July 13, 2010

I’m finally here….my first Tour de France! We’ve been in the Swiss / French Alps for a couple weeks now waiting for the Tour to come to us. As much as I would have loved to have seen the first week, you’d have to be mad to follow around the tour all over the countryside. […]

Stage 5: A Day For The Sprinters

July 9, 2010

If you desperately needed to catch back up on your sleep, last night’s stage was one where you could safely go to bed early. Highlights on SBS will do just fine with the typical formula of early suicide break-away, the catch, the sprint finish. Not that I don’t enjoy these types of stages, however they’re […]

Coming Out Of The Closet

June 30, 2010

I’ve been in denial for a long, long time now and I’ve finally come to terms with it. I’d like to publicly announce - I’m bi-cyclist. A bike whore.
