@JaunePeril Happy Birthday John! Just finished belatedly reading Bjarne Riis' autobiography - lots of good things said re JU. Sadly, appears he overlooked your accomplishments... Have a good one!
RECORD ENTRY AS GRAN FONDO ISLE OF MAN RETURNS
Gran Fondo IOM returns this Bank Holiday weekend for the fifth time, with a record entry of over 800 cyclists for what will be the Isle of Manโs largest event of the year.
Head over to our Facebook page to read our event preview!
@HungryHoss@rfbooth If you're planning running it from a laptop (for example) just log in as a guest on your phone while you're trialling it. That's what I did when practising screen sharing and it helped - even did it for the live version as well so I could keep an eye on what everyone was seeing..
@JaunePeril @robbleden@daffydowndilly@GefMongooseIOM@IOMGovernment Cycled through there the other day. Don't worry about the speed limit, there is a warning sign, letting people know that walkers may be on the road. So, I'm sure they'll be fine....
@RocheAndrew Although cars on main road in Onchan seem to be going faster through village - instead of nose to tail, it's foot down, beat the traffic lights. Narrow pavements when walking dog means need to step into road to give oncoming walkers 2m. Not easy with cars hammering towards you.
3 days of amazing racing๐
Huge thanks to all the teams for coming to the island, all our volunteers who helped the event run smoothly, the spectators who came to watch and all the event sponsors!
We hope everyone enjoyed it and had a good time despite the weather yesterday
