Looks like the Strava kids dropped you.

I was well dropped. Felt like death.

I turned around this morning after 20kms and went home. Absolutely no interest.

Great finish is right. Did you see Sam in the tour of Turkey. Didn’t have the legs

He went very early yday. Looked like he was stuck in top gear. Won two stages though.

Dan Martin has been in good form in the one week races in Spain this season. Could be worth a look in Fleche Wallone or Liege-Bastogne-Liege but I have a feeling he has lost his top speed when he attacks.

Some finish that.

I think Dan has been overtaken by the marginal gainers tbh. Had coffee with Emma O on Friday and she was very matter of fact.

Yeah, could see that in the Tour of Catalonia, he was spinning like a lunatic and couldn’t keep up with the likes of Bernal.

I know the feeling.

Spun out to Red Rock there for my first cycle of the year.

In Fingal ?

Just after a lovely Sunday morning cycle to and back from Willie Frazer’s hometown of Markethill.
