Floyd Landis is a self confessed doper. The END.

Other riders, nothing to do with these threads, deserve the benifit of the doubt.

Just ride your bikes, for health(dope free). You know this makes sense. I still do!!!!

Kindest regards to all. Raymond (aged 76)

You are right of course Raymond. Good health to you and good riding
Chris (Athos) age 27 again!

Had a nice little ride this afternoon on my new bike AND the old one (which is also still new). It's cold and windy but I enjoyed the ride if only for the reason that I can still do it.

Kind regards to you, Raymond and Chris.

Hi Pieter, Nice comment, I do remember Cape Town/Port Elizebeth/East london/Durban in the 1960,s in July/August, it was COLD. Anyway, warm in SA means cold in France. Regards

Yes a great summer here in Europe, even England has had sun, sun, sun. Not all of the UK unfortunately, not so good it seems in Scotland.
I was out picking Blackberries from the hedgerows today, very tasty, then off to do some COOKING with 3 friends, we did a Lasagne – Onions, garlic, prime beef, mushrooms, tomatoes, beef stock and lasagne Verdi
This with a cheese sauce
For desert we did – Roasted Nectarines with Ginger and brown sugar.
We all sat down then and had a feast; it was excellent I am PROUD to say
Yes Ray, a great TDF. Now nothing to write about except complaining like grumpy old men
Good riding Raymond

Yes, we English can cook!!!!

Could not ride my bike this weekend, cold, windy, raining. I'm entered for another mtb event on 11th of September and I need the training badly.

This event is called the Staal Water Uitdaag (Steel Water Challenge). The venue is at a hot water spa and casino and all riders can enter for free after the race. I will skip the casino but definately go for a dip in them nice hot water.

This was posted at 1.30am after I've taken a pill to help me sleep. I was a bit "drugged" and that's why I made even more spelling errors than usual. Please forgive me.

Cold day is right, evidently!

Hello Zen, no it's a cheap Bell but I'm so fond of it, won't change it until it falls apart. It's the helmet I used when I did my first mtb race and nearly died because I was so unfit.

Take care!
