As many of you know, there’s been a lot of synergy between BIGRINGRIDING and Velominati for several years now. Though BRR and Velominati have very different flavors, we work on a similar principle: foster passion for the sport through a mix of knowledge, history, and humor tempered with a healthy dose of irreverence, all while obviously making things up as we go along.
It seems only natural, then, that we should work together and thus it is with great delight that I present our monthly feature with the Big Ring taking his capitalized view on a Rule of his choice. No better Rule to start with than my personal favorite, Rule #9. And remember, it’s more than just a chainring, it’s a state of mind.
Yours in Cycling,
Frank

10c on the other side of Canadia? I guess not. Even in the Pee-Yew Jet Sound region, 10c is feeling pretty balmy.
Ready for tomorrow's club ride - 1 frikkin degree C forecast - cafe opens at 10.00 though

Maybe that's why the Costa Rican player has neon boots?

Sorry for the meme but if a comment has ever called for it, this is it.

Way to Harden the FUCK Up!!! Chapeau!
@the Engine Tomorrow I have 3 hours inside on the Sir Chris Hoy Velodrome. Short sleeves and shorts. Cafe in the foyer. Lovin it.

in southern Ontario, we got up to 3 or 4 with some sunshine today. It's more or less the nicest we've seen in months.
Tomorrow = (9.5º and "partly sunny") x 120kms. I'm feeling bullish on this "life" thing.

Such a fantastic photo. Bit envious of both the photographer, able to capture the suffering, and the cyclist, able to endure the suffering.
@Buck Rogers
I'm assuming that's what second place feels like, but I don't really know... hee, hee
