Ovo Energy Tour

No love for Lizzie Deignan?

I know a lot of non-British fans have suspicions about because of multiple missed doping controls. I don't have any strong feelings about her one way or another.

Looks like it was a handlebar failure that caused the first rider to lose control rather than a burst tyre as i first thought. Still looked like a pothole was responsible despite the organisers saying it wasn't.

Last time I fell off was a pothole in Watlington (on the race route). Hit a big pothole, carbon stem snapped off, I went over the bars and off to John Radcliffe hospital. Cuts and abrasion to face/head, two broken fingers. Having travelled fairly extensively around the UK, I’m convinced Oxfordshire roads are the worst in the country. Absolutely shocking.

Much more exciting than the Giro.
