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

At least your "climbing" on the drops a la Pantani!
Rule 9 on the football pitch last night!
My shed is only for storage of bike shaped object. As for the weather I can't even go snowboarding, the feckin roads closed, arrrrrghhhhhhhhhhh. So looks like another b'stard turbo session for me then. Still and all I've shed 7 pounds in 3 weeks. That's shed as in lost as opposed to shed as in where thebastard bike is kept!

Oh. What's it for?
@Buck Rogers
I remember playing in similar conditions many years ago and losing a shoe while tracking back to defend. And another five minutes to find he damn thing while play continued: up and down the field with one eye on the ground, hoping I might be able to get it back on...

Absolutely amazing stuff. I liked them all. I very much liked this one of Cavendish and followers. Well framed and good depth.
