I think I watched most of this from behind the sofa, especially as I've had a twitch like he had a minute or so in but wasn't able to catch it again

Tributes have been paid to former Olympic cyclist Melissa Hoskins, who died after she was hit by a car in Adelaide on Saturday.

The 32-year-old represented Australia at two Olympic Games and was a world champion in the team pursuit in 2015.
Hoskins' husband, fellow Australian cyclist Rohan Dennis, has reportedly been charged with causing her death...... 😲

World champion cyclist Rohan Dennis has reportedly been charged by police with causing the death of his wife after she was hit by a car on Saturday.

South Australia Police said a 32-year-old woman suffered serious injuries and died in hospital in Adelaide overnight.
A statement added that a man, 33, had been arrested and charged with causing death by dangerous driving, driving without due care and endangering life.

The driver was known to the woman and has been released on bail until March.

It has been widely reported in Australian media that the man and woman are Dennis and his wife Melissa Hoskins.

Both from BBC News.


Terrible that.


RIP young lady 🙏
 
van der Poel is riding at an unbelievable level in cyclocross at the moment - 8 wins out of 8 and destroying the field by minutes, on every different type of course. It's not actually great racing, as Wout van Aert is riding below his usual level on a different training schedule, so can't contest things - but as a spectacle of just pure technical bike riding it is inspirational to watch.
Pidcock has been in decent nick - had some bad luck with unfavourable gridding, wrote the bike off on turn one the other day, so hasn't had the results despite riding pretty well overall.

I'd say it's likely vdP slays the Classics tbh - he is in his absolute prime wearing the rainbow jersey, back issues appear sorted, the only rider who can physically match him in Flanders (Pog) isn't doing it afaik. van Aert is meant to be doing both the Giro and maybe the Vuelta, with everyone eyeing the Olympics in Paris. Think vdP will race the mountain bike again after the fiasco in Japan, but it will be a different story taking on Pidcock there - no idea what the course will look like, which is critical, but Pidcock is extremely strong on the MTB.
 

After much soul searching, I made the decision yesterday to put ad bike up for sale. The fact I’ve not used it for about 18 months helped make the decision…. That and the fact I’ve probably done less than 200 miles on it since I bought it. Prefer ambling along on my mountain bike these days.
