Scotland like Ireland (we didn't make the cut this time, again) make heavy weather at scoring. Great defences, make it hard for any attacking team no matter the reputation, but hard to get ball in the net, so a lot of torturous 1-0 or 1-1s. Torturous especially for the fans!

Dartmoor, so must be a gate to Faeryland surely!

The City of London Nocturnal took place last night in the Square Mile, first time in 8 years! and was a huge success. Great to see a Saturday night crit take place in the centre of London with large enthusiastic crowds. It works so well at night and in the middle of London! Dartmoor, so must...

Yes sorry. Rear 12x148 - industry standard for 29ers

Hi Andy Spesh picked an awkward wheel axle size when they released the Vado SL! I was idly looking into this recently and I worked out my best bet was to get some 29er MTB XC wheels, these are lightweight and strong. The rear axle is the same axle size as a lot of 29ers; 12x110mm boost so a...

Saw him collapse at finish but that was oxygen debt from final climb effort, didn't realise he was still suffering from crash aftermath. You're right. Loads abandoned today for that reason, July is very close. Josh Tarling having collarbone surgery today, Geraint Thomas was saying that a week...

Yeah be careful with AI, I was asking questions about a bike on ebay and it told me a downright lie, which I corrected and it said of course! You're right! then immediately got it wrong again. Have to double check stuff. Teravail Rutland look good. Your issue on the back is the stupidly low...

Another shopping trip so another excuse for some architecture pics. It's a very old town Mortonhampstead, on the edge of the moor. Slight Wickerman vibes...

Amazing recovery. Tuckwell has about 40secs lead going into final stages with 4 climbs and another big final climb, he won't make it but the battle behind is intriging. Think he should be ok re the cars. Commentator mentioned the narrow road and basically a slow traffic jab so little advantage...

Also worth tweaking the gearing to go with the front sus off road gravel bike/mtb feel. I've got a 36 chainring on the front and went 11-46 on the rear from stock 44T and 11-40 (i think) makes the steep Dartmoor hills much easier and kinder on the motor as I can spin more, less feeling the motor...

Superb work! Fascinating to see the ol' Vado with the sus forks. Didn't realise you were a tall lad, so funny for me (medium size, 5'10") to se such a massive triangle. Looks like it'll work. If the budget stretches to a lightweight suspension it will look and feel great I think. What tyres...

Good to know. Well not good. Was surprised and pleased to see Del Toro stay with Seixas. And the day after Mexico easily beat South Africa in the opening game World Cup.

With this one yes, especially if saving himself for next month plus he's not a climber. On a grand tour bit different, most try and finish and as we saw with Van Aert in the mountains at last year's Giro, he can be very very handy!.

Interesting developments all over the shop. Ineos boys nowhere, did Onley crash? Commentator wasn't sure. Everyone else except Del Toro out the back, but Del Toro looks good so far. Jorgenson cracked but not far off by end. And a new young climber from Oz, Luke Tuckwell. He's a good climber...

Thats a very good price. Fingers crossed on the conversion. Really interested to see the result.

Good stuff! Was it via ebay or a local shop? Good deal?!

Hmmmm... might need the range extender for these.

3 mountaintop finishes, two long and steep. I bet Seixas is planning an explosive attack on one at least, pog style, counting on powering away and then claw his way into a big lead. It might be a case of playing the Felix Gall game of not trying to match him due to his power, but going at own...

Is Brave just for PC? Haven't heard of it. Mac here, safari or Firefox.

Spesh higher command looking at the threat from Chinese brands thought - "a 12 grand version of our existing well liked emtb with complicated fussy racks, they'll never copy that..."
