Friends over at cyclingtips have compiled lists of products they’ve liked during the year, eg tech editor James Huang, and so a bit of a copycat article with some things that have been useful for riding and stage previews.
Housekeeping
Housekeeping Note
A few tech problems with the website at the moment so it’s readable but just, especially if you’re browsing via a desktop computer or big screen. It’ll be on and off this weekend as the mechanics get to work, hopefully with a tweak of a torque wrench rather than the hammer.
Supporter Kit
A timely reminder that you can get supporter t-shirts, socks, jerseys… and the as-seen-on-TV supporter caps. You get yourself some new kit and help keep the wheels turning here.
Away
Even blogs get their off-season and it’s time to swap the keyboard for the surfboard; reading a palmarès for snoozing under a palm tree and where the only tweets will be from real birds. But stay tuned as a few pieces have been cued up to go online during the next 10 days.
Supporter Kit
A reminder to readers that you can get some gear and support this blog at the same time. There are t-shirts, jerseys and socks.
Supporter T-Shirts Back In Stock
The t-shirts are back in stock and available on the Prendas Ciclismo website: prendas.co.uk. They were launched last month and sold out faster than a promising U23 sitting down alone without an agent for contract negotiations with Team Sky.
Supporter Kit
With the Giro around the corner, a quick rattle of the collection tin because all sales of supporter kit really do help. Now the jersey is cheaper than ever as Prendas Ciclismo have knocked £5 off the price and if you’re outside the UK the exchange rate can help more too.
As ever sales revenue is split between the shop and this site and this helps keep the wheels turning here.
Pro Race Calendar Reminder
Loyal readers might be familiar with the calendar but with the season in full swing now there are many more visitors so if you missed it during the off-season, here’s a reminder you can get a pro cycling calendar for your organiser, phone or computer diary. All of the major UCI men’s and women’s pro races around the world are included. Below there’s a quick explainer on how to subscribe, the meaning of the UCI labels and more.
Supporter Kit
A reminder that supporter kit is for sale. If you’ve enjoyed reading this year then why not get something for yourself and tip some coin this way at the same time.
