Thursday, July 30th, 2009

I love their huge product range, some of the things I still have to get an education on what they actually [...]

Surprising Article

Tuesday, July 28th, 2009

Was really interested to read this article today.

Fortunately in our sport if you ever become Olympic Champion I really don’t think for one minute that you will have to go back to work afterwards.  I have heard of Euro 45,000 for just a bike deal for one of the recent Olympic Champions.  If you are [...]

I love following Simon Whitfield’s journey He’s an inspiration, especially in times like this…see below! One thing that interests me about his career is its not at all Peaches and Cream all the way and he goes through a lot of bad times to get to those great times and he has the [...]
