Hello, well the Spring Classic bike races
have been and gone, but even though the specialist racers who do them
can take a breath now, cycling journalists can't. The Summer Tours start
now, Italy in May, Spain in September, but the biggest is always the Tour
de France in July. I'm busy working on the WH Smiths guide to the big
French race at the moment, and since it has to be in the shops by early
June the focus now falls on stage race speciallists and speaking to them
to assess their form for July.
Meantime I've been doing plenty of features
for Cycling Weekly and Cycle Sport, so I've included some of the background
pictures from them for you to look at. I'll try and swap them over every
couple of days, too

Here's a picture of Tour de
France finisher and double pro road race champion, Colin Lewis, training
in Devon. Colin who is now 63 and current national champion of his age
group, is the subject of an up and coming Cycling Weekly 'Ride' feature.

Last week I was doing interviews
in Belgium, and got to one or two races, including Nokere Koerse which
was the British team, DFL's first time out against the ProTour guys. British
rider Jeremy Hunt of the top Belgian team, Unibet was a fine third.
