I'm sure they had spoke protector discs on when they showed them on TV tonight.

Disgusting.

For 2 bikes?!

Spoke protectors are still on there. I notice they don't have those comfy Brooks saddles on either!

What's that...Adrian Chiles' ears?

 

[Paulus]

Will they be auctioning the bikes off after the ride? Spoke protectors or not I would bid for them

 

[Paulus]

Any news on how they got on on day one?

 

[summerdays]

They were slightly late getting to Burton on Trent at just after midnight, and they changed their route at some point to take a short cut. Oh and the Sat Nav sent them the wrong direction at one point for 10 mins.
Today Adrian Chiles has taken a tumble.
