Julien Absalon (Orbea) won the elite men's cross country World Cup in
front of a home crowd in La Bresse, France. Absalon, who lives about
10km away, rode a smart race tactically and managed to escape the bad
luck that affected some of the other favorites. Jaroslav Kulhavy
(Specialized) steadily worked his way up throughout the race and made a
late bid to overtake Absalon, but finished second.
BikeRumor:
The Minimoto is a compact V-brake designed to work with short pull
levers, which includes standard drop bar road bike levers. This lets
you run your standard brake/shift lever road group and get the right
amount of leverage at the brakes without any force amplifying gizmos in
between. It’s also way easier to install and set up than traditional
‘cross cantilevers.

"We hired Mike Montgomery who knows all about going over backwards on a
bike. We scoured the Internet until we found some clip of a guy on a
road bike doing a small back-flip and once we saw that we knew it could
be done."
Marijn
de Vvries: "I have been on the road since 6.30 am when the start gun
sounds for Gooik-Geraardsbergen-Gooik at 2.30 pm. The long journey via
train stations, airports and hotels proved to be a real threat to my
well-being in general and my legs in particular. Exhausted, I stand at
the start line hoping that this feeling will disappear once I hit the
pedals and the road."

to pull out of the Giro d'Italia.

First held in 1996, Tour of Japan is less a “tour” of Japan than a
series of circuit races taking place in, or close to, major civic
centers on the main island of Honshu. The race has followed a fairly
consistent format over the years, though a couple of additions along
the way, namely the iconic Mt Fuji hill climb (a feature of Tour of
Japan since 2005) and a prologue (since 2010), have shifted the balance
of power back towards all-rounders – but not so significantly that
sprinters are pushed out of the GC game.
