Matt Brammeier Update

Matt Brammeier -- continental pro, British U23 national time-trial champion and the Becks to Nikki Harris's Posh (an analogy we're sure they'll both LOVE) -- has been hit by a cement mixer while out on his bike this morning.

He's now in hospital with a broken thigh, but word on the street is that apart from that he's okay.

While normally we'd use this as an excuse to complain about how Britain is a complete and utter joke, our main concern is extending our thoughts to one of British cycling's most talented rising stars. We're sure most of our readership feels the same way.

Here's wishing you a good recovery, Matt.

Tomorrow:
A return to less sobering thoughts, as Rebecca Charlton FINALLY puts her best dress on just for us.

Dutch cyclists we like because they're better/more attractive than British riders

Things we hate so much we're not even going to link to them

Our e-mail inbox isn't just for Japanese gambling promotions and the latest advances in penis enlargement chemistry, you know

What's the word "derailed" got to do with bikes anyway?

  • Err... bikes have things called derailleurs? Apart from track bikes, which don't.

If derailleurs evolved from fixies, how come there are still fixies?

  • Survival of the fixest.
