    I sense he's got a bit of an internal argument going on here - he's mostly
    persuaded that helmets aren't necessary, but still thinks they're a good
    idea.

  2. There's an interesting article by Matt Seaton about cobbles and
    paris-Roubaix, too.

    I'm just wondering when Roubaix was moved to Belgium, though.

    If he came to Dundee he'd see a lot more cobbles... Most of th estreets
    near the Uni are a thin veneer of patchy tarmac over cobbles, many of
    which date back at least a century.

    Research? FLJS? Nope, does not compute.

    Barley, barley, barley, world cruise. You never see a farmer on a bike.

    They've just put some cobbled speed tables on the road behind the London Eye
    (which just happens to be a signed cycle route for both the LCN and national
    network). Horribly rattly to cycle over but you probably don't feel it in a
    motor. I wrote to the council to whinge.

    The Nut Mines are surrounded on all sides by cobbles. Hateful things.

    Ha ha, you fool! You've fallen victim to one of the classic blunders!
