Don't know what forecast that is? Met Office have heavy rain and 20mph wind. At least its blowing from the south so coming back shouldn't be so bad. |

Jens must have been very proud, getting his pic taken with the champ - pehaps the pinnacle of his career and certainly something to tell his grandkids..... when he phones them after the race! Mon the Albert! _________________ Second place = best loser! |

don't give up the dayjob Brian, that's two Sundays in a row you've got the weather wrong ;P
Derek, your words ring true, if you see the pic its half of jens' face and all of fat Rickys, as if jens has just leant in to try and capture a quick snap of our hero |

The Slab is Back!
Pics of The Slab and me (mostly the Slab) at the Beef Tub and Talla are now on the website.
Also, video of the the ToB bunch riding up the Talla climb. Cavendish in 7th position.
To see these pros ride up a major climb in our own back-yard was fantastic. They made it look sooo easy.
