Tag: Montreuil sur Mer

Podium Number 1 of the season and a chance meeting with Kurt Asle Arvesen!

Le Tour de France 2006 – Day 11: Stage 8, Saint-Méen-le-Grand – Lorient

Bremen Six Day 2012 – Day Two

To misquote Shakespeare; 'that which I greatly feared is upon us.' Brad hasn't been taking bottles in the chases thus far and we'd no reason to think he'd start tonight, but he did. Right at the moment his mitted hand clutched that bottle, my heart sank - I've lived this nightmare before.
