Turmeric as Aleman suggests, ideally taken in curry on a regular basis really does work. Loads of studies support effectiveness.

Can we talk about yesterdays stage yet?

Was that not one of the best stages in years? Thrills and spills and what a worthy winner

See, nothing much revealed

 

[Randyberlin]

Are you talking about stage 2 of the July league? The water I spilled wasn't that bad. I don't think my time was as good as it can be. I may redo both stages.

Edit. Sorry I jump around on the different treads and this should NOT have been posted on the splitter thread.

You must be so disappointed you chose such an uninspiring place? Not sure I'd want to get out and ride when I could sit on that balcony all day and just chill out!

I'm racing at 5:10 this afternoon, flat WBR 18 mile race if anyone interested. Be my 3rd day riding so not expecting too much. Cat B pen although really I'm Cat C on the Kickr so I'll be looking to get in a C group.

Think I need to move down to C. I joined the ride tonight smack on 0 seconds so missed the blast off, decided to do an ITT but even so only just beat the D riders. Was stuffed by all B and C riders. I'm sure, had I started on time and blasted away I could have stayed in the C group but my legs just aren't putting out enough power to weight to be in B at the moment. ZP was to demote me too so I think I'll do that and join @JLaw in C group

We rode from Allemont to Villard Reculas yesterday - not done that route before and the scenery was stunning. The road then comes out by Dutch Corner on Alpe D'Huez. I recommend this route to you chaps for September.

We also found the new cyclepath between Bourg D'Oisans and Allemond. Lovely new tarmac alongside the Romanche River. You can spot it on the map of the ride.

Our group one day went through 60 litres of water and coke

Looks fantastic Norry. Very cool! I’ll definitely take a closer look at your routes (I’m now officially Strava stalking you by the way )

We’re only going to have two full days riding on our little jaunt so I think we’ll have to plan quite carefully.

I’d also be interested in any nice restaraunt or cafe stop suggestions you have.
