and talks tactics and the perils of the rest day.

Someone asked me the other day at the Tour de France what was my
favorite climb of all in this phenomenally beautiful country. I said,
they’re all great. But I do have a soft spot for the western slopes of
the Col du Tourmalet, which this year’s peloton will tackle on
Thursday’s stage from Pau to Luchon.

Today’s rest day brings to mind Antonin Magne, winner of the Tour in
1931 and 1934 who said “the Tour is won by sleeping”. He didn’t mean he
snoozed on his bike, instead that recovery was so important. Many
riders today will have been working hard on their rest day, going for
the right ride, eating correctly, stretching hard and getting a strong
massage.

racing remaining.
Bicycling:
Team Sky mechanics installed Shimano XT mountain bike cassettes on

long-cage rear derailleur is required.
VeloNews:
Mavic’s neutral service team enters a race like Paris-Roubaix expecting
battle. Flats will happen, the peloton will be splintered, and team

standing between many riders and a DNF.

Using a heart rate (HR) monitor isn't rocket science, it's just a case

Dietary supplements are big business. You only have to walk into a
health food store to see that. However, knowing what to use and when
can be a minefield for an experienced athlete, never mind someone
stepping up their cycling training. The claims made can be spectacular,
almost too good to be true – unfortunately, they generally are.

Felt's Nine 29er carbon hardtail hasn't changed much since its
introduction back in 2008 but the 2013 version looks to be worth the
wait with huge leaps forward in performance. It's slightly lighter but

percent and the geometry is a further refinement over what was already
a winning formula.
