Off The Slack...
As I mentioned earlier I have been pretty slack with my riding recently. My mileage is less than a quarter of what it usually is for this time of year. Never the less I am going big this weekend. 4 laps for a total of 43 miles. Being an old Rev I could race Masters and only do 3 laps but that would not be very Big Ring now would it? I do wish it was one big loop as passing my car...What the Hell Vuelta?...

Today the Vuelta de Espania annouced the team line up. No Slpistream? Is argyle too much of a fashion no no in Spain? The Rev demands answers.
Look for Big Ring Brother Swindlehurst to be in top form at Tour of the Gila starting tomorrow. Go over to the Forum and leave your words of inspiration. He has won the overall there 3 other times and I know he is cocked and loaded for this...

As our little congregation grows so do out hosting costs. I don’t want to plaster the site with ads so I limit it to vendors I have used. I am happy to announce our new affiliate program with Backcountry.com. They employ a number of my friends so I know that they really do use the gear they sell. I have bought some ski stuff from them in the past and have been very happy with...

Queens of The Stoneage are pretty mediocre. Kyuss is where it’s at!
Valverde is certainly a blessed man. Sprint, check. Climber, check. TT, check. My prediction for Gesink was way off. I thought he and Decker would be able to wreak some havoc in the hills. Nostradamus I am not.

Brothers and Sisters please forgive my sloth. Things have been beyond hectic for me the last few weeks. TCOTBR does not support my fabulous lifestyle (buy some shirts!) so I have been spending a sinful amount of time at my day job and other assorted business ventures. Last week I was out of the country and without a phone or net connection. I have some big plans for our little...

Boonen. Perhaps the epitome of Big Ring. The naysayers said his days of winning the “big classics” were over. They said his life has become too complicated to train as he did years back. They said as a marked man, he has lost the element of suprise. The God of the Cobbles thought otherwise....

Quick update from Redlands: Brother Swindlehurst is finding some fine early season form, nailing down a solid 3rd place and moving to 4th overall. Would not wanna try to hold his wheel at Gila. Can I get an Amen? Check the story at...Pre Season Racing...

The best non ‘cross racing of the year kicks off this weekend with Flanders. Brothers and Sisters this is a time of great joy at TCOTBR. The forecast is for cold rain and maybe even snow, in other words a typical day in Belgium. Boonen will be gunning for Saint status with a 3rd win. Cancellara and his cottage of wattage showed the kind of devastation he is capable of at San Remo....
