Around SBN: Knicks 90, Raptors 87: "Shump and Lin wouldn't let us lose."

Tweet du Jour

What the what?

Big thx to ASO for shortened the stage today that was really good n we see that they do care about us n all riders stick 2gether. @frankschleck

Riders [heart] ASO [hearts] the riders? What in the name of Henri Desgrange is happening these days? Peacetime is very confusing to us cycling fans. Next thing you'll know, we'll find out that Pat McQuaid and Christian Prudhomme are planning to be roommates during the Tour.

Runner up, in response to Andy Schleck's tweet asking what options are there for a cyclist whose hands are too cold to operate his brakes:

@andy_schleck pull down on the cable under your top tube... also known as the emergency brake. @dzabriskie

These guys are underpaid.

pull on the rear brake cable?

That’s how my daughter could do the braking when she stoked the tandem.

She knew to ask first, and not do it randomly. ;)

Hmmm..seeing Christian Prudhomme/Pat McQuaid mentioned in the same thread with a tandem bicycle....

I get a funny visual. I don’t know if I’d rather see them or the tandem team of Hein Vebruggen/Dick Pound, tooling around on the boulevard during the TdF….perhaps on a late model yellow Puch tandem….

A frozen 'cross ride from this last weekend. As you may be aware we have had siberian conditions here in the UK with a low of -14 degrees centigrade here on saturday morning. It was a beautiful sunny morning so i layered up and set off for a snowy 'cross ride along a roman road. I checked the thermometer when i got back to find it had been -10 throughout the ride! I had a lot of fun though and the views were spectacular.
